Join us at Ë¿¹ÏÊÓƵ 2025 for the launch of the new Ë¿¹ÏÊÓƵ Climate & Biodiversity Action Plan and participate in climate and biodiversity workshops, educational sessions, and more.

The new Ë¿¹ÏÊÓƵ Climate & Biodiversity Action Plan is being developed by a five-member Task Force and 34-member Advisory Group of climate and biodiversity leaders from the landscape architecture profession.

The new plan is a significant update to the Ë¿¹ÏÊÓƵ Climate Action Plan, which was released in 2022, and offers new goals and actions for 2026-2030. The scope of the new plan has been expanded–the climate and biodiversity crises are now treated as equal priorities, and the focus is on actions that tackle both crises in an equitable way.

The ambitious plan seeks to transform the practice of landscape architecture by 2040 through actions taken by Ë¿¹ÏÊÓƵ and its members focused on biodiversity and ecological restoration, climate mitigation and adaptation, equity, and economic development.
