In the opening conversation, she talked about the interconnecting factors that bring us together as GIS professionals.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"undefined block-editor-paragraph\">\u201cOne of the things that really struck me was the word&nbsp;<em>one \u2014<\/em>the fact that there is only one ecosystem. It\u2019s an ecosystem that is environmental and socioeconomic; it is industrial in terms of our different sectors, and it\u2019s one ecosystem that our technology can work across to come up with a whole series of solutions,\u201d said Wright.<\/p>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"580\" height=\"289\" src=\"https:\/\/uat.esri.com\/en-us\/industries\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Fallows_Wright_Sachs_UCCL.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-375632\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">James Fallows (left), Dawn Wright (center), and Jeffrey Sachs (right) talk during UC Central Live<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n<p class=\"undefined block-editor-paragraph\">Sachs joined Fallows and Wright from Greece to talk about the need for sustainability that he\u2019s seeing around the world. Sachs shared how areas like the Amazon basin are at \u201ca tipping point\u201d and talked about how maps have been the communication tool to illustrate the dire outlook for our climate and natural resources.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"undefined block-editor-paragraph\">In response to addressing the current state of our climate, Wright encourages people to organize their data, start discussions, and facilitate action in the face of despair. \u201cThere is still time, but we must act now,\u201d said Wright.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"undefined block-editor-paragraph\">\u201cWe don\u2019t lack for solutions, we don\u2019t lack for the money to do it\u2026we\u2019ve just not found our way politically and our way to cooperate globally,\u201d said Sachs. He said that we must create that sense of \u201coneness\u201d in our work as GIS professionals to help people understand how we\u2019re all interconnected.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"undefined block-editor-paragraph\">Wright closed with a response to the question of the moral imperative and ethical responsibility behind communicating and sharing maps and data as we reach the critical environmental tipping point. To prevent misuse of GIS technology, care should be shown in education, enriching metadata, and establishing best practices and workflows for using GIS technology.<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"824\" height=\"426\" src=\"https:\/\/uat.esri.com\/en-us\/industries\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Wright_Healy_Science_Symposium.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-375622\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Dr. Dawn Wright introduced keynote speaker, Dr. Healy Hamilton, at the 2021 Esri Science Symposium<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-esri-science-symposium-recap-biodiversity-and-our-role-in-the-ecosystem\"><strong>Esri Science Symposium Recap: Biodiversity and our role in the ecosystem<\/strong>.<\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"undefined block-editor-paragraph\">In addition to her numerous UC Central Live appearances, Dawn Wright also hosted this year\u2019s 6th annual Esri Science Symposium, which highlighted the importance of biodiversity and the critical need for humans to recognize our role in our ecosystem.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"undefined block-editor-paragraph\">The symposium started with Dawn, welcoming an audience of over 3,000 and spotlighting Esri science resources available in the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/en-us\/about\/science\/overview\">Esri Science portfolio<\/a>,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/en-us\/about\/climate-change\/overview\">Esri Climate Action site<\/a>, and&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.gisforscience.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">GIS for Science website<\/a>. Audience members then received a free copy of the ebook&nbsp;<em>GIS for Science<\/em>, vol. 3:&nbsp;<em>Maps for Saving the Planet<\/em>, which details how GIS can be applied to safeguard biodiversity.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"undefined block-editor-paragraph\">After an introduction from Dawn, Dr. Healy Hamilton, chief scientist of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.natureserve.org\/who-we-are?gclid=Cj0KCQiAsqOMBhDFARIsAFBTN3eDxkjAPRBsfoLwQTNvaKjQmwh_z0VXLk_R2IYPixPABks67Rs5iqsaAnN0EALw_wcB\">NatureServe<\/a>, a nonprofit that utilizes GIS to collect data about imperiled species, began with her keynote presentation.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"undefined block-editor-paragraph\">Hamilton\u2019s talk emphasized the importance of biodiversity. She detailed the story of individual species that are now extinct due to human causes and encouraged the audience to recognize the massive range of biodiversity we have on earth. <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"undefined block-editor-paragraph\">With the loss of unique species, we as humans lose the ability to learn, study, and potentially create from what we observe. Biomimicry, the field of mimicking nature to create solutions, saves time on research and development because it does not require inventing something new, but rather, building off solutions nature has already created. As the number of species decreases so does our ability to learn from their specialized traits.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"undefined block-editor-paragraph\">Hamilton urged the audience to think of themselves as&nbsp;a part&nbsp;of the ecosystem stating, \u201cSpecies shape their environment. Species modify, maintain, and create their landscape. We (as humans) have turned into ecosystem engineers, and this is the world that we have created. \u201d<\/p>\n\n<section class=\"news-blockquote--quote block-editor-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\" aria-label=\"Quotation\"><blockquote class=\"news-blockquote-block--quote\"><p class=\"block-editor-pullquote-body\">&#8220;Species shape their environment.

By mapping areas with high numbers of endangered species, community developers, citizens, and scientists can determine which places need the most critical and stringent environmental protection.

Maps allow us to see the bigger picture. \u201cProtect what\u2019s left, restore what\u2019s degraded,&#8221; stated Hamilton. &#8220;That is a spatially explicit set of directions.
