Mangroves are the only trees in the world that can grow in saltwater, and they are rockstars in the fight against #ClimateChange. Celebrate the @unep Decade on Ecosystem Restoration with @rewild & @BNTBahamas.
प्रधानमन्त्री केपी शर्मा ओलीलाई सर्वोच्चले दियो ७० औं जन्मदिनको विशेष उपहार - संसद विघटन बदर गर्ने ऐतिहासिक फैसला । अब नैतिकताको आधार मा राजिनामा देऊ @kpsharmaoli https://t.co/Ezw6SjiWrC
#DYK The majority of "biodegradable" plastics fail to degrade in the marine environment?
They can instead fragment into harmful microplastics, posing risks to
🔹Our food chain
🔹Our health
🔹Our environment
We need to innovate upstream for #CleanSeas🌊

We need every cent to be spent on shifting the needle to sustainability. It's not just because Earth’s beleaguered natural systems need the finance industry but because it needs the natural systems even more. - @andersen_inger https://t.co/ojXltS7kp6
Climate change is largely an ocean issue.
The upper ocean is absorbing over 90% of climate change heat, putting coral reefs on the frontline of this issue.
Head to https://t.co/6xGtyAHAqh to sign a pledge to support greater ocean protection.

वन्यजन्तु संरक्षण विकासको विरोध होइन। बरु यो त समानान्तर लक्ष्यको कुरा हो, जहाँ विकास र वातावरणीय संरक्षणको बिचमा सन्तुलन हुन्छ। विकास निर्माणका योजना दिगो हुनुपर्छ र मान्छे र मान्छे बाहेकका प्राणीलाइ यो एकैरुपमा फाइदाजनक हुनुपर्छ
निजगढ विमानस्थलको विस्तृत सम्भाव्यता अध्यनका अनुसार यसले प्रत्यक्ष र अप्रत्यक्ष रुपमा १००,००० भन्दा बढी रोजगार प्रदान गर्छ। तर अहिले यो भन्दा पनि उक्त जङ्गलबाट गर्न सकिने अौषधीजन्य र सुगन्धित बिरुवाहरुको दिगो उत्पादन र वातावरणिय पर्यटनको सम्भाव्यतामा ध्यान दिन जरुरी छ।
Wildlife conservation is not anti-development. Rather, it is about parallel goals where there is a balance between development and protection of the environment. Development plans should be sustainable and beneficial for both humans and non-humans alike.

Parsa National Park has limited water resources, which means that the extension corridor Nijgadh forest, plays a crucial role in the survival of the animals. Especially during dry spells, species migrate to Nijgadh forest for food and water.

Nepal has garnered praise for successfully increasing its tiger population by 100% in the last decade (from 121 in 2009 to 235 in 2018). 18 of Nepal’s 235 tigers live in Parsa, and if Nijgadh airport is built, they may not have a home for much longer.

Nepal has about Rs7 billion, collected as #PollutionTax, levying 50 paisa per litre on petroleum products. The fund should be spent on minimizing emissions from vehicles & dust from roads, addressing larger public health cause. https://t.co/jQTss0RyCt
Bangladesh and Nepal agreed to raise strong voice against the adverse impacts of climate change and natural calamities in international forums. https://t.co/Da3FZEWS2J
