Walk in the Park – Does the global biodiversity crisis affect us?

Join ecologist John Pinel to explore loss, change and resilience, and examine when ecological concern demands action.

Loss of biodiversity is often framed as an environmental issue, but what if it is something more fundamental? On this walk, John explores evidence of change in Jersey’s wildlife and habitats, asking when gradual decline becomes systemic risk.

Through observation and discussion, the walk examines resilience, thresholds, and whether failing ecosystems threaten food systems, stability and long-term security closer to home.

John Pinel is a freelance ecologist with 30 years’ experience, including a decade as the Government of Jersey’s Principal Ecologist and three years as Executive Officer of the Jersey National Park.
