🤔 Unsure about why making progress at #COP15 is so urgent?
🦉 BirdLife Partners are fighting to protect nature in over 115 countries globally.
💭 Here are their thoughts on the outcomes we need to protect Global Biodiversity.
“We want to accelerate action to stay on track for a 1.5 degree world, but we don’t believe that these interventions are going to be sustainable if we don’t put the people and nature considerations at the same level as climate.” – @JosefinaBrana from @World_Wildlife
It’s an urgent and present danger. Today, flying back to my homeland 🇳🇬 from @COP27P , I had a panoramic view of a once thriving wetland(s) between Chad 🇹🇩 and Nigeria 🇳🇬 going very dry. Our lands/wetlands/grasslands are getting drier and drier. 😭😩 #SaveSoil
Africa is facing its worst food crisis in 40 years.
It can only be solved if the underlying causes of the twin environmental crises of climate and nature loss are also addressed, write WWF's @aruhweza and @IFRC's @MukhieOmer ⬇️

Food insecurity is stalking hundreds of millions of people across Africa.
Access, availability and affordability of food must be urgently improved. The crisis can only be solved if significant drivers of nature loss and climate change are also tackled https://t.co/LGsW6CSRhi
