Overview

Ecological restoration is the process of assisting the recovery of ecosystems that have been degraded, damaged, or destroyed. This practice encompasses a range of activities, from reforestation and wetland restoration to the reintroduction of native species. The field has gained momentum since the 1980s, with organizations like the Society for Ecological Restoration (SER) leading the charge. However, it faces significant challenges, including funding limitations, climate change impacts, and debates over methodologies. As the urgency of biodiversity loss escalates, the future of ecological restoration will hinge on innovative practices and community engagement.
