I hope you don't mind that I just had to meme this (and squish it a little to fit).
Both climate change and biodiversity loss are intertwined crises with severe consequences for people and nature. seedling
On this #EnvironmentDay and every day, we remember the essential role of biodiversity in effective climate action.
RIP #JaneGoodall - one of the modern pioneers of profound interconnections between people, animals and ecosystems. Her life was lived through science, compassion and tireless advocacy for the multiple values of nature - leaving a legacy that will endure for people and planet.
I am delighted to announce that Luthando Dziba has been appointed as the next Executive Secretary of @ipbes.net
A celebrated conservationist from South Africa, Luthando's work has been focused on innovative solutions to protect species & preserve the habitats that sustain them.
Welcome, Luthando!

"While it is clearly the prerogative of Governments to withdraw from global processes, like those of @ipbes.net, it is important to remember that this does not change the science or the relevance of that science to the lives and livelihoods of people in every community, in every part of the world. 🧪
*This* is leadership. And @davidobura.bsky.social is so obviously right: turning your back on facts doesn't make them go away
