Support the Development of the ASLA Climate & Biodiversity Action Plan (2026-2030)

“Landscape architects know that nature-based solutions can help address both the climate and biodiversity crises while also providing multiple economic, environmental, social, and health benefits. This incredible Task Force and Advisory Group, made up of biodiversity, climate, equity, and advocacy leaders, will show us the way and guide our collective action over the next five years,” said ASLA President Kona Gray, FASLA.

 

ASLA is developing a new Climate and Biodiversity Action Plan for the U.S. landscape architecture community. A five-member Task Force and 33-member Advisory Group of climate and biodiversity leaders from the landscape architecture profession is leading this effort. 

 

The new plan will be an update to the ASLA Climate Action Plan, which was released in 2022, and offers new goals and actions for 2026-2030. The scope of the new plan has been expanded – the climate and biodiversity crises will be treated as equal priorities, and the focus will be on actions that tackle both crises in an equitable way.  


The ambitious plan seeks to transform the practice of landscape architecture by 2040 through actions taken by ASLA and its members focused on biodiversity and ecological restoration, climate mitigation and adaptation, equity, and economic development.
 
The new plan will be released at the ASLA Conference on Landscape Architecture, October 10-13, 2025, in New Orleans, Louisiana.
