Did you know Mountains host half of the world's biodiversity hotspots & shelter 30% of all key biodiversity areas? Yet, the mountain ecosystem is under threat due to increasing amounts of plastic waste left behind! Take action for #PlasticFreeMountains #InternationalMountainDay

[Food and Agriculture Organization @FAO]

#DYK that forests cover 39% of global mountain area?

Mountain forests & grasslands…

⛰️cool local temperatures
⛰️increase water retention
⛰️store carbon
⛰️reduce risk of erosions & landslides

Let’s recognize the importance of our mountain ecosystems!
