Why care at all? ❓
You have heard the word COP numerous times by now, so why does this new COP29 meeting matter? 🦉
Taking place this week in Azerbaijan, COP29 is vital to tackling climate change for nature and people. 🌎
Decisions will shape our future, but we must continue to do all we can to empower our global Partners and local communities to safeguard ecosystems around the world.

Let’s talk Key Biodiversity Areas (KBAs)! 🗺
Only 1/5 of areas identified as the most important for biodiversity are fully protected.🦉
To conserve 30% of land, waters and seas by 2030, we need to focus on both quality and quantity of sites. KBAs are our best tool in identifying quality sites for conservation in every country. 💧🌎
So far, 13 countries have included actions based on KBAs in their revised National Targets, and 33 countries are pinpointing areas that matter most for biodiversity. 📍📄
By ensuring that 30% of our conservation efforts focus on these vital sites, we can make a real impact in achieving Goal A: halting extinctions. ❌
Together, we can protect the most vital places for nature! 🙌

🚨Red List Update🚨
Migratory shorebird populations are plummeting globally. ⚠️ 📉
16 species have been reclassified to higher threat categories, with potential causes including habitat loss and degradation, disturbance, hunting and climate change. 🌊
🌎 Travelling the world on migration routes called flyways, shorebirds are a familiar sight worldwide.
Protecting shorebirds is vital for all of us. 💚 The places migratory birds stop and rest on their long journeys are important for millions of people.
CBD COP16 is the moment to galvanise action to halt and reverse nature loss by 2030. 🤝
Nature loss can be reversed but extinctions cannot.❌
