Climate Week NYC - Wildlife Connectivity and Resilience in Appalachia

In the heart of the South lies an ancient mountain range — a biodiversity hotspot with species found nowhere else on Earth. Once thought of as a climate haven, it now faces intensifying storms and hotter summers. Learn how communities are responding and building connectivity to help wildlife and people thrive in a changing climate.

Panelists:
- Ben Prater, Defenders of Wildlife
- Jessica Roberts, Ph.D., The Pew Charitable Trusts
- Lindsey Liles, Garden & Gun
- Dalton George, Mayor of an Appalachian town

Moderator:
- Ramona McGee, SELC's Wildlife Program Director
