Accelerating Nature-Based Solutions
Leaders from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers’ Engineering With Nature® initiative were among a group of leaders across the federal government who provided input on a White House report that highlights opportunities to accelerate nature-based solutions.
The report is a byproduct of Executive Order 14072 signed by President Biden on Earth Day. That order takes multiple actions designed to tackle the climate crisis, make our nation more resilient to extreme weather, and strengthen local economies, including focusing considerable attention and federal effort on nature-based solutions.
For more than a decade, EWN has been part of a worldwide community of organizations that have dramatically advanced the use of nature-based solutions to infrastructure challenges. The USACE initiative intentionally aligns natural and engineering processes to efficiently and sustainably deliver economic, environmental and social benefits through collaboration.
