Every species plays a crucial role in our ecosystems, from food production to water recycling. Understanding these roles and connections is essential for effective conservation.

We use tons of plastic — from packaging to toys and everyday tools.

But where does it all go?

Unfortunately, much of it makes its way to the ocean, causing harm to marine life. Once there, it doesn't break down easily & continues to pollute ecosystems

Degraded ecosystems fuel disaster risk, making communities more vulnerable.

Mangroves, seagrasses and tidal marshes are amazing ecosystems but we must do more to protect them!

Our International Policy Framework for #BlueCarbon Ecosystems helps fit the policy puzzle together to scale up coastal protection: https://t.co/BtKcEdIJgJ

Nature is essential for our survival—it provides the food we eat, the water we drink, the energy we use, and the very foundation of life itself.

But the accelerating nature crisis is unraveling ecosystems, deepening inequalities, and threatening all life on Earth.

🌳 Large-scale #ForestRestoration is needed to meet the #SDGs and to prevent, halt, and reverse biodiversity loss. 🌱🌏✨

#GenerationRestoration

[Convention on Wetlands @RamsarConv]

Mangroves are one of the world’s most threatened tropical wetland ecosystems and are declining at a worrying rate. Aquaculture, agriculture, coastal development, pollution, over exploitation and rising sea levels are all playing their part.

Unsustainable agriculture drives nature loss.

With #COP16Colombia calling for action across all sectors, transforming food systems to prioritize sustainable, plant-rich options is key to halt & reverse this loss.
