The Sierra Nevada mountain ecosystem have been ravaged by fires in recent years, so a combination of sustainable forestry to reduce fuel loads and ecosystem restoration have reportedly increased the biodiversity and fire resilience in the area.
Push-pull biological control involves using certain plants to both attract and repel pests, in this case helping to increase yields of maize crops while reducing the need for harmful pesticides.
The National Forestation Program implemented by the Korean government in the 1960s and spanning several decades was found to have successfully sequestered carbon and reduced disaster risk in an economically viable way.
Silvo-arable agroforestry, the practice of planting trees between crops, has been largely successful on the 125 hectare Whitehall Farm, reportedly reducing soil erosion and increasing agro-biodiversity. Agro-ecology principles have also been embraced to attract wildlife including pollinators and pest predators.
Silvo-arable agroforestry, the practice of planting trees among crops, has reportedly boosted Wakelyns Farm’s resilience to pests, built up soil fertility, and provided wildlife habitats for various species. The farm emphasises self-sufficiency by deriving energy from solar panels and woodchip boilers and minimising reliance on chemical inputs.
Activities to restore the Garron Plateau containing the largest area of peat bog in Northern Ireland began in 2010 after 95% of the bog had been degraded.
The restoration of a straightened river included re-connecting the river to its surrounding floodplain and creating storage ponds and small wetlands. These measures aimed to improve natural flood management of the catchment while also restoring biodiversity.
