Whole Systems Ecological Restoration - Rethinking the Role of Invasive Species with Tao Orion

32-34 Fidelis Way, Boston MA

Description

Tao Orion, permaculture designer and author, joins us from Oregon with a whole systems-based understanding of invasive species as a foundation for holistically managing their populations. Invasive species are often viewed as the drivers of ecosystem change, and the practice of landscape management often focuses on their removal as a means to improve ecosystem function and enhance biodiversity. A more holistic view of invasive species places them within a larger social, economic, and ecological context as symptoms, rather than causes, of changing ecosystems.
