Nature Is Our Solution

Climate change is here. It's up to us to adapt and fight the worst effects. TNC works to protect the ecosystems, species and natural resources that California relies on and that make our state unlike anywhere else. From stopping megafires to restoring our coasts, we access the power of nature to protect the thing that matters most: our home.

The planet has lost 50% of its coral reefs over the past 50 years and it’s on track to lose 90% by 2050. That’s why TNC is working with an amazing coalition of partners to develop new solutions that can help rehabilitate degraded reefs.
