Forests are often viewed as mere resources to be exploited. However, they are vital for carbon sequestration, biodiversity, and the livelihoods of countless communities. When we cut down the last tree, we not only lose a critical carbon sink but also the habitat for species.

A New project in Uzbekistan will help prevent potential risks from living modified organisms (LMOs) to #biodiversity.
Without safeguards, LMOs can contaminate or displace indigenous crops—threatening wild relatives of apples, walnuts & almonds 🌿
Funded by @theGEF, and implemented by IUCN & @FAO.

Languages shape how young people learn and build the future.
Yet 40% of learners are not taught in the language they speak and understand.
Join us on #MotherLanguageDay to support multilingual education and ensure everyone learns in their own language: unesco.org/en/days/mother-la…

From rising seas to disappearing forests, Small Island Developing States face some of the fiercest fallout from environmental degradation.
But many of these countries are fighting back.

Freshwater landscapes are home to 10% of all known species on Earth but a recent IUCN co-authored study reveals 1/4 of freshwater animals at risk of extinction.
It is the largest global assessment of freshwater animals on the @IUCNRedList to date.

Key Biodiversity Areas are the most important places in the world for species and their habitats.
From deserts to the middle of the ocean, these sites are of global importance to the planet’s overall health and the persistence of #biodiversity.

Ecosystems are collapsing in real time: Australian reefs bleached, Amazon turning from sink to source, boreal forests burning.
These aren’t opinions. They’re observations.
Awareness must continue. The science keeps marching forward.

Wetland habitats support a rich diversity of life, but 35% of the world’s #wetlands have disappeared in the last 50 years.
Wetland restoration not only increases #biodiversity but their ability to produce ecosystem services for the benefit of people.

Wetlands cover a small percentage of the earth’s surface, yet they are essential systems.
🌿 They are the arteries and veins of the landscape.
🐟 They support fisheries and sustain livelihoods.
💧 They act as essential water sources and natural purifiers.
A world without wetlands is a world without water.
