It's International Biodiversity Day, and we are proud to be part of the plan. Not only is today an opportunity to pause and be thankful for the astonishing array of life on this planet, but to consider how we can take actionable steps to protect it. Here's why: - Biodiversity supports healthy ecosystems - Biodiversity is crucial for the health of humanity and all life - Biodiversity has served crucial cultural importance for Indigenous peoples around the world since time immemorial - A healthy economy depends on healthy biodiversity Given that 90% of biodiversity loss is due to the extraction and processing of natural resources, we have to do better.

Every person alive today has only lived on a planet that is bleeding biodiversity. The next decade is our opportunity to halt and reverse this loss.

For EnviroSustain, biodiversity is an area of particular interest, remaining a key topic we’ve been keeping our eye on and last year, we announced our new partnership with Rewilding Europe 🌳🌎 Biodiversity equals around $44 trillion in economic value (more than 50% of global GDP), making biodiversity one of Earth’s most valuable assets. Despite the massive amount of value biodiversity provides us, our global loss of biodiversity over the past 50 years has been significant, and 80% of that global biodiversity loss is caused by the built environment, agriculture, and energy/extractives. By why is it important? Read our blog and look out for upcoming articles on biodiversity regulations and the TNFD. https://lnkd.in/eCn-98yh #biodiversity #planetaryhealth

Biodiversity is the living fabric of our planet. It underpins human well-being in the present and in the future, and its rapid decline threatens nature and people alike. On 22nd May, we celebrate the International Day of Biological Diversity, to raise awareness of the vital importance of preserving biodiversity. "Be part of the Plan”, the theme of International Day for Biodiversity 2024, is a call to action for all stakeholders to halt and reverse the loss of biodiversity by supporting the implementation of the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework, also referred to as the Biodiversity Plan. The Biodiversity Plan offers opportunities for cooperation and partnerships among diverse actors- Governments, local communities, non-governmental organizations, businesses, and individuals. All are encouraged to highlight the ways in which they are supporting the implementation of the Biodiversity Plan. We are all #PartofThePlan #BiodiversityDay

The #InternationalDayofBiodiversity is therefore meant to increase the understanding and awareness of biodiversity issues that affects them. With a strong theme #BePartofthePlan , this means that we need #Everyone on board ! Our #Biodiversity continues suffering a myriad of challenges that are often orchestrated by #Man. In the last two decades both have suffered extreme weather due to imbalances and the effects are very live to us ! This is a call to action for all stakeholders to halt and reverse the loss of biodiversity by supporting the implementation of any existing Biodiversity Framework, also a reminder to the states that they need to validate the Biodiversity recovery Plans developed by civil societies. #CivilSocieties.

Happy International Day of #Biodiversity2024! There has been an average decline of sixty-nine percent (69%) in #wildlife populations between 1970 and 2018. What are world leaders doing about it? Have you ever wondered what measures are being taken to prevent more #biodiversityloss? The #Kunming-Montreal Agreements were a landmark decision taken in 2022 where countries set 23 targets to conserve, restore, and finance biodiversity. Find out more through this post 👇!

Consultant at Curating Tomorrow: museums, SDGs, climate, biodiversity, futures, rights, DRR. Churchill Fellow
How can #museums support & use the Global Biodiversity Framework (2022-30)? I made a lot of suggestions in this open-access guide (link below), supported by the British Ecological Society, many translatable to other sectors such as #libraries. In a nutshell: through effective collections, education for #sustainabledevelopment, empowering people to take part in biodiversity decisions and to benefit from biodiversity, shift to sustainable/regenerative tourism, support researchers effectively, operations and management, and partnerships & collaborations. I hope it's useful. Nature needs us (and we need it)! https://lnkd.in/enn4-rsB
