Join Sustainable Conservation on May 15 for the third webinar in our Climate Resilience in Action series!

In the third webinar of Sustainable Conservation’s Climate Resilience in Action series, we turn our focus to flooding. Building on earlier discussions about California’s latest devastating wildfires, the importance of forest health, and the need for ecosystem restoration, Restoring Rivers for Flood Protection will explore how natural floodplains and restored rivers can reduce the state’s increasing flood risk while providing critical habitat, safeguarding water supplies, and protecting communities.

We’re honored to have experts from River Partners and American Rivers join us to discuss how collaborative, nature-based approaches are redefining flood protection in California. Through smart river restoration and floodplain reconnection, we’ll explore how communities and ecosystems can leverage these approaches to be better prepared for a future shaped by extreme weather and complement existing drought and fire strategies to build a healthier, more resilient California.

Many thanks to Spottswoode Estate Vineyard & Winery, Wilson Sonsini Foundation, and Jennifer Hernandez of Holland & Knight, for sponsoring our Spring 2025 webinar series and for sharing Sustainable Conservation’s vision of stewarding California’s most precious resources for the benefit of nature and people. Interested in our webinar sponsorship opportunities? Contact Jan Merryweather.
