Why Conserve Biodiversity? 🌍 India, a biodiversity hotspot, hosts 7-8% of the world's species on just 2.4% of its land area. Our economy and well-being rely heavily on nature, providing essentials like food, water, and medicines. According to the Global Risk Report 2024 by World Economic Forum, biodiversity loss is a critical economic risk. Depleting biodiversity reduces our climate resilience, impacting livelihoods and human health. It's time for action! At UN Global Compact Network India, we're committed to integrating biodiversity conservation into business practices through the implementation of United Nations Global Compact principles. Keep an eye on the UN Global Compact Network India page for an exciting announcement!
