We need to move from pilots to large scale nature restoration and it is possible in Europe

[WWF EU @WWFEU]

Targeted, large-scale nature restoration in Europe would capture millions of tonnes of CO2 emissions each year, shows a new study by @IEEP_EU, commissioned by WWF 👉 https://t.co/lNUyIDNZyC

Such a missed opportunity to regain a healthy balance and stimulate a sustainable future for people and nature

[Eva Hernández Herrero @EvaHernandezH]

Makes sense to be "legalised" and fully unsustainable!? Paper can stand anything, not the functioning of nature. When an aquifer runs dry, it runs dry. For spoonbills, marbled teals, dragonflies... and farmers! @VSinkevicius @EU_Commission @WWFespana https://t.co/312oh3D2fj

Iniciamos la demolición ⛏️ de la presa del Torcío, con el doble objetivo de eliminar una infraestructura que supone un riesgo para las personas ⚠️ y por otro lado, garantizar la continuidad fluvial 🏞️

High impact hydropower in Europe's high mountains: even small projects can have big impacts

We must safeguard the Isel - the last free flowing glacial river in the Alps - for the benefit of people & nature

NEW REPORT: @WWF research supported by @PictetGroup Foundation finds that ⅓ of global food production relies on rivers. But they face growing risks globally, threatening food security. World needs Healthy & Resilient rivers. Find out more at https://t.co/vhrK4lUx7P @wnfnederland

OUT NOW: Major report on world’s #ForgottenFishes.

Freshwater fishes are dazzlingly diverse. And they are critical for societies, economies & ecosystems...but they are undervalued and under threat.

We must act now to save them.

Door eb en vloed weer toe te laten in een zogeheten ‘wisselpolder’ tussen 2 dijken, kan de verdediging van de kust een stuk duurzamer, natuurlijker én goedkoper worden. Dat schrijven Jim van Belzen, Gerlof Rienstra en Tjeerd Bouma in een rapport. @NIOZnieuws #klimaatadaptie

Looking forward to @CASsummit2021 as world must urgently & drastically increase investment in #ClimateAdaptation to build resilience

Lots of great sessions on #NBS @WWFAsianDeltas @WaterasLeverage, bankable projects etc.

This is one of the largest weir removal projects of this type in England that aims to remove a significant #BarrierToMigration for many #fish species. Not all removals are straight forward read the challenges this project has faced during #COVID19
