Fully revised and updated, this second edition provides a systematic review of nature-based solutions and their potential to address current environmental challenges. With growing recognition of the need to work with ecosystems to address global environmental challenges there is now a move towards nature-based solutions, which involve utilising nature's ecosystem to solve societal challenges while providing multiple co-benefits. This book systematically reviews nature-based solutions from a public policy angle, assessing policy developments which encourage the implementation of nature-based solutions to address societal challenges while simultaneously providing human well-being and biodiversity benefits. This expanded second edition delves deeper into how these solutions can foster sustainable development, enhance human well-being, and conserve biodiversity.
