Biodiversity loss is a widespread concern, particularly in the tropics, where it is highest.

Forests harbor a diversity of species. You have a part to play to stop their destruction.
Protecting forests goes beyond saving trees. It's about safeguarding our climate, #biodiversity, & local communities.

Strong #ClimateAction is key to achieve the #GlobalGoals.
The poorest and most vulnerable people, while often least responsible, are mostly affected by the current climate crisis.

#Biodiversity loss & #ClimateChange:
🌐Are driven by human economic activities
🤝Reinforce each other
🌏Increasingly threaten nature, human lives, livelihoods & well-being worldwide
Neither will be resolved unless both are tackled together.

Although they account for an estimated 5% of the global population, #IndigenousPeoples steward at least 25% of the world’s land, which contains much of the planet’s biodiversity.
Protect the rights of Indigenous Peoples.🌳
