#COP17Armenia

Humanity is only as healthy as the variety of species and ecosystems, known as biodiversity, that supports us. Here's how you can support biodiversity right where you are: www.unep.org/news-and-sto… #COP17Armenia

Governments cannot successfully protect species, restore ecosystems, or conserve important natural areas if decisions about land and ocean use continue to ignore biodiversity, says a new paper co-authored by WCS. newsroom.wcs.org/News-Rel…. #COP17Armenia

Nature underpins everything we need to survive.  The world agreed to conserve 30% of land and seas and restore 30% of degraded ecosystems by 2030. But these targets are off track.  #COP17Armenia is a chance to take stock and speed up action.  What’s on the agenda: ow.ly/C3mk50ZYUeO

The theme of the 7th Science–Policy Forum for Biodiversity at #COP17Armenia is “Taking Action for Nature — a global shift from words to action, from awareness to responsibility,” w/ focus on nexus approaches in practice & mechanisms for effective science–policy interaction and transformative change.
