"When we look at local territories, we also talk of the larger biome. This is how people, land, oceans, & climate come together, so it is an #integralecology. The focus in Oceania Asia is looking for that basis of reconciliation" @Pedrowalpole at #FABC50

"We know we have a closing window of opportunity.
#CoralReefs are the first ecosystem we could lose.
Which means, they are the first ecosystem we could save."

Today is Biodiversity Day at #COP27.
For far too long, the interconnected crises of climate change and biodiversity loss have been seen as separate issues. We can no longer afford to see them that way.
