We need more forests
The UN Forum on Forests safeguards 🌲🌳🌴, so we can turn the tide on:
🌳️ Deforestation and forest degradation
🔥 Climate change
🦋 Biodiversity loss

Wetland habitats support a rich diversity of life, but 35% of the world’s wetlands disappeared in the last 50 years. Wetland restoration not only increases biodiversity but their ability to produce ecosystem services for the benefit of people.

Well done @carbon_forward for convening a diverse (and knowledgeable) panel: interaction of national, international & voluntary carbon markets

To #InvestInOurPlanet we need an integrated approach to our financing, to both reduce investments with negative impacts and mobilise finance for restoration and protection. The solutions exist - we must choose to implement them. @EarthDay
Tomorrow is @EarthDay and we need to #InvestInOurPlanet. Wetlands ecosystem services are worth USD 47 trillion annually, supporting the livelihoods of one billion people and supporting life on this earth. When will we support them?
The solutions to a just, equitable, nature-positive future are in our hands. But we must choose to #InvestInOurPlanet. @EarthDay is this Saturday. Raise your voice for our one shared home 🌏
This Saturday we celebrate @EarthDay and ask world leaders to #InvestInOurPlanet. #naturebasedsolutions are central to building a just and equitable future. We need finance to flow towards nature.
Trees play a pivotal role in our fight against the #ClimateCrisis. Nearly 250 million people, many of whom are among the poorest in the world, rely heavily on forests for food, protection, and work. Protecting our trees means protecting our futures.
Peatlands store twice as much as the world's forest biomass combined, despite covering less than 3% of the global land surface. 🏞️

Carbon-offset schemes might be complex but they pay for something that matters.Supporting the natural systems that manage the stocks and flows of carbon through the planet’s ecosystems is essential to humans’ survival. https://t.co/loK7pnacmg
