Enduring Earth at #AgreementToAction event: 2 years ago we made a pledge to work with all stewards of the environment to protect our planet. Here’s how we are doing ⬇️ ✅ Together, we have raised (so far) more than $500 million for durable conservation and leveraged over $700 million from governments. 🌎 11 project finance for permanence (PFP) initiatives are in development in 10 countries, that will protect more than 300 million hectares of our planet. 🌱 Working with more than 90 partners we are building a global, just, and inclusive PFP community. #UNGA78 #NaturePositive

Will be interesting to see how sustainable financing is discussed at the Summit, with the focus on mobilizing innovative financing for countries vulnerable to climate change. #NouveauPacteFinancier #Agenda2030
"Issues on finance are never easily agreed. A useful outcome would involve more money in the system, getting the money to where it needs to go, and getting that done in a fairly quick manner" Sharon Lindo, @AOSISChair, shared at #NewGlobalFinancingPact axios.com/2023/06/22/paris-c…

New report: As global risks become more intertwined, preparedness needs to become more of a shared responsibility - rather than using traditional models of addressing failures when they occur #ClimateAction #ForNature @wef
NEW: 2023 Global Risks Report suggests averting tipping points requires a combination of conservation efforts, accelerated and nature-positive climate mitigation, interventions to transform food systems, and inclusive, just and equitable change to consumption and production #WEF

The deal would roughly double biodiversity financing to $200 billion a year from all sources: governments, the private sector and philanthropy. It earmarks up to $30 billion per year to flow to poor countries from wealthy nations. #COP15 @CatrinEinhorn nytimes.com/2022/12/19/clima…
