“Masungi has reaped global and national awards for environment protection. But the 30 claimants, backed by politicos, want Masungi out. DENR offers no help to the earth savers, nor care for the yearly ruinous floods.” -Jarius Bondoc’s latest column at The Philippine Star

Without reform of our #foodsystem, #biodiversity loss will continue to accelerate and threaten our ability to sustain human populations. Reform will rely on three key levers. 👇

About 50 000 wild species are used for food, energy, medicine, material & other purposes.

This includes many plants.

But often these plants are not sourced or used sustainably, which threatens #biodiversity.

The Brazilian Amazon is still burning at an alarming rate. We must switch from an economic model that is based on the destruction of the forest and the exploitation of natural resources to a system that values the forest standing.

Did you know that #mangroves support #biodiversity and provide habitat or nursery grounds for a huge array of species?

Mangroves are an extraordinary ecosystem, which are able to absorb CO2 at least 4x faster than tropical rainforest.🌳

Protecting forests is one of the most effective ways to address the climate crisis.

Forests can benefit the planet & all its people, and are invaluable in our #ClimateAction efforts to build a sustainable future.

Some good news: Area under deforestation alerts in the Amazon has dropped by 66% since July 2022.

This shows the impact of recent measures like remote embargoes and credit restrictions in curbing deforestation.

#Wetlands are our most valuable ecosystem with critical services for #biodiversity, health, water security and climate adaptation.

But we are losing wetlands 3⃣ times faster than forests. We must accelerate actions for the conservation & #restoration of them.
