A panel discussion on novel ecosystems, invasive species and the value of restoration ecology. This is a scientific discussion, but dont be put off, quite interesting. The questions include: (1) What value, if any, do pre-European landscape conditions have for establishing targets for conservation or restoration in North America? (2) Should conservation and restoration activities be tailored to proactively address climate change. If so, how can we prudently incorporate practices such as assisted migration into existing management philosophies? (3) If natural areas managers were to embrace a Novel Ecosystems approach, how would they go about setting priorities for habitat protection or restoration? (4) What is a prudent burden of proof for eradicating exotic species from a natural area? https://youtube/watch?v=rqVcGSlmFC8
