Sergey Zimov

Sergey Zimov is a Russian scientist known for his research on ecosystems and climate change. He studies how large animals and natural environments interact, particularly focusing on the Siberian tundra. Zimov's work explores how reintroducing native animals, like mammoth-like creatures, could restore ecosystems and reduce permafrost melting caused by climate change. His ideas aim to use nature-based solutions to combat global warming by encouraging grasslands instead of barren, thawing permafrost areas. Overall, he seeks sustainable ways to restore ecological balance and mitigate climate impacts through understanding and managing natural processes.
