🌍🌿 Wetlands: Our Lifeline to a Sustainable Future 🌊🌱 From freshwater 💧 and food security 🍏 to sustainable cities and poverty eradication, healthy wetlands are essential for our daily survival - and for solving humanity's most pressing challenges. 🌏✨ But here's the harsh reality: the world's wetlands are in crisis. 😔 They continue to be degraded and destroyed – rivers and reefs 🐠, marshes and mangroves, swamps 🦢 and seagrass beds 🌱. It's time for action! 🚀 Let's join hands 🤝 and work towards a future where wetlands are protected, restored, and cherished. Together, we can ensure a healthier planet 🌎, resilient communities, and a brighter tomorrow for all. 🌟💚 #WetlandsMatter #Sustainability #ProtectOurPlanet #ClimateAction #Biodiversity #TogetherWeCan 🌏🌱💧🏞️ https://lnkd.in/g-ET4GR3 The Big Wild & WWF

There’s no silver bullet, there’s no one size fits all. It needs to be a holistic approach towards a regenerative ecosystem. At Fils our four pillars of sustainability ensure that we contribute towards balancing the ecosystem and our planet 🌏 #sustainabilty #impact #fils #unsdgs

The Boreal Forest is one of the largest land-based solutions for preserving biodiversity and fighting climate change. Even though the boreal faced tough challenges – especially from wildfire – in 2023, there is still much to celebrate in conserving this vital landscape this past year. Here are some of the highlights: ➡️ The signing of the NWT PFP framework agreement that plans to sustain vast boreal lands ➡️ The increase of Indigenous climate emergency solutions ➡️ The advancement of conservation finance models in BC led by First Nations, the government of Canada, the Province of BC, and private funders ➡️ The leadership exchange of our campaign to the Indigenous Leadership Initiative ➡️ The growth of Indigenous Guardians programs protecting lands & waters across the boreal 2023 has been a year of milestones for boreal conservation, and we’re so excited to continue protecting and preserving the largest intact forest in the world. 🌎 💚

Eyes on the prize...WWF&C's vision for New England is to lead in addressing the global crises of climate, biodiversity, and inequity by sustaining the natural infrastructure that supports all life on earth. To succeed, we must work across New England: from cities to countryside, and from forests and farms to every community, to permanently protect undeveloped land. Each of the six states in our region has ambitious goals to increase the pace and scope of land preservation, and with collaborative efforts, a clear path forward and traditional New England gumption, we can achieve them. Our dashboard shows where we are now and where we need to be as states and a region.

The Kabbi Kabbi people have been awarded Native Title over 365,345 hectares of land in south-east Queensland (Noosa and Sunshine Coast), their land, that was never ceded. This is a huge win for First Nations people and for nature and climate! Globally, we're experiencing rapid biodiversity loss and the only places where that loss is less, is on lands managed by First Nations people. Incredibly proud of my home right now, and the recognition of the people who first walked it, managed it, connected to it and lived in harmony with it, once hunted, killed and removed from it, can now be deservedly recognised as the traditional owners of that land!

Today, we're proud to embrace the powerful slogan for this year's Desertification and Drought Day: 'United for Land: Our Legacy. Our Future.' This theme recognizes the crucial role that land plays in our lives – from supporting ecosystems and biodiversity to underpinning our economies and communities. The slogan challenges us to reflect on the legacy we're creating through our actions today and the green future we envision on land. Engaging present and future generations is more important than ever to halt and reverse land degradation and meet the global commitments to restore 1 billion hectares of degraded land by 2030. Let's join hands with the UNCCD, Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ) Bundesstadt Bonn and communities around the globe to champion the cause of land restoration. Together, we can turn the tide against desertification and drought, ensuring a healthy planet for generations to come. Join the movement. Embrace the slogan. Act for our legacy, our future: https://bit.ly/3OPMoXo #united4land #desertificationanddroughtday #herland

The slogan challenges us to reflect on the legacy we're creating through our actions today and the green future we envision on land. Engaging present and future generations is more important than ever to halt and reverse land degradation and meet the global commitments to restore 1.5 billion hectares of degraded land by 2030. Let's unite with the UNCCD, the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development, and communities around the globe in a shared mission to champion land restoration. Together, we can turn the tide against desertification and drought, ensuring a healthy planet for future generations. Act for our legacy, our future. ➡️ https://lnkd.in/eiGJb5sF #United4Land

This #WorldEnvironmentDay is especially relevant to the team at ChannelSight. The 2024 theme #GenerationRestoration brings awareness on how to reverse land degradation, halt desertification and build drought resilience, which resonates with our team as we consider how we can do our part. By joining forces, governments, businesses, civil society and individuals can give nature a helping hand and forge a more sustainable world for generations to come. The Nature Trust, co-founded by our CEO & Co-founder John Beckett, was developed to restore Ireland’s native forests and peatlands, while enabling others to follow our lead by planting native woodlands across Ireland. There is no lack of ambition: the goal of planting or rehabilitating 1% of the land area of Ireland (over 200,000 acres), at a cost of well over €1bn (in today’s money) over the next 20 years, but this is still only scratching the surface of the climate and biodiversity crises. A staggering 40 percent of the world’s population is impacted by land degradation, and if remained unchecked, could reduce global food productivity by 12 percent, causing food prices to soar by up to 30 percent by 2040. So, how are you, your government, business and community working towards land restoration?

Nestled across seven Central and Eastern European countries, the Carpathian Mountains are a wonder of nature, home to vast forests, nearly 4,000 plant species, and diverse wildlife including imperial eagles, bears, and wolves. Yet, these ecosystems face threats from climate change, such as rising temperatures, increased wildfires, and changing precipitation patterns. The Carpathian Convention fosters collaboration among countries to promote biodiversity and sustainable practices, vital for the health of major freshwater sources like the Danube river and others. As #WorldEnvironmentDay approaches on 5 June, with a focus on land restoration, desertification, and drought resilience, it’s crucial to recognize the efforts and challenges in the Carpathians and beyond. International cooperation and sustainable practices are more essential than ever to safeguard our natural heritage for future generations. https://lnkd.in/gRgX_Cbx

This year, #WorldEnvironmentDay is celebrated under the theme "Our Lands. Our Future." This global campaign focuses on land restoration, drought resilience, and combating desertification.  At FSF Florverde Sustainable Flowers (Official Page), we are committed to these goals and proud to contribute to the restoration of local ecosystems. Back in May, we successfully planted 1,300 native trees in Nemocón, in collaboration with ASOCOLFLORES, the Corporación Autónoma Regional de Cundinamarca, and the Alcaldia de Nemocón. Each tree planted represents a step towards the recovery of areas affected by fires, and its impact will endure over time. This initiative is aligned with the United Nations Decade on Ecosystem Restoration (2021-2030), which aims to accelerate global efforts to prevent, halt, and reverse ecosystem degradation worldwide.  🌱 Together, we can make a lasting difference! #GenerationRestoration #FSF #FlorverdeSustainableFlowers
