We need more rewilding and connections to nature, says Enrique Ortiz
Enrique Ortiz is a Peruvian biologist who has been working in conservation in Latin America since the 1970s. Today he works at the Andes Amazon Fund, a philanthropic initiative that has helped establish 79 protected areas and get 18 Indigenous territories titled.
Ortiz says the pandemic has been “terrible and tragic” for both people and the environment, with a rise in poverty, violence against environmental defenders, and environmental crime and degradation.
But he also notes surprising resilience where communities and local governments have continued protecting wilderness despite COVID-19.
Ortiz spoke about these issues and more during an April 2021 conversation with Mongabay founder Rhett A. Butler.
VANCOUVER A Vancouver Island First Nation and a nearby city have reached a significant milestone in their efforts to acquire, protect and restore a culturally significant site that was once a sawmill. Late last month, the Comox Valley Project Watershed Society completed the acquisition of the property, known as Kus-kus-sum, from Interfor Corporation. According to a news release, Project Watershed will now hold the land in trust for the K’ómoks First Nation and the City of Courtenay, while the two groups work out the details of a co-ownership agreement for the site. Once such an agreement is reached, Project Watershed will transfer ownership of the property to the city and the nation, while remaining as the manager of the site, overseeing efforts to remove a vacant office building from the property and restore the K’ómoks Estuary.
