Nature4Climate aims to increase action on natural climate solutions in support of the 2015 Paris climate agreement.
About us
Nature4Climate is a multi-organization strategic communications platform to help raise the profile of natural climate solutions and catalyse action on the ground. Natural climate solutions are proven ways of storing and reducing carbon emissions in the world’s forests, grasslands and wetlands, and better stewardship of the land also has impact on other critical environmental, social and economic benefits, which are less well understood. These solutions are available immediately, are scalable and can transform key sectors of the global economy, such as forestry and agriculture – and they are available almost everywhere on the planet. Despite the fundamental science being very well understood, action on land use remains much underused as a climate strategy – lacking the funding and attention that has helped kickstart the energy transition. We use creative communications and advocacy to influence international climate policy, national government policy, and private sector action on implementing natural climate solutions between now and 2023. We bring together voices from governments, IGOs and NGOs, and business – underpinned by a steering group with communications and advocacy representation currently from CBD, CI, TNC, the UNDP, WHRC, WRI and WWF.

Dedicated to restoring the Teluk Semanting Mangrove, an Indonesian village embraces the mantra: “More mangroves, more blessings,” as they plant Rhizophora seedlings. The country holds the third-highest potential globally for carbon sequestration through natural climate solutions*. Today, on the International Day for the Conservation of the Mangrove Ecosystem (UNESCO), we remember that with temperatures rising rapidly, there’s a critical need for solutions that not only sequester carbon but also provide shelter, aid communities in adapting to extreme events, and safeguard ecosystem balance and livelihoods. This short documentary is part of The Nature in Action series, a collaboration with community-led filmmakers from ‘If Not Us Then Who?’. The series showcases stories of individuals and communities at the forefront of nature protection and recovery, emphasizing successful #NatureBasedSolutions and the strong leadership of #IndigenousPeoples and local communities. 🔗 Read more here: https://lnkd.in/eKNbJvHi ⁉ Curious about the platform behind these stories? *Naturebase is a new interactive tool that brings together science-based data on nature’s pathways to benefit the climate by showing where, why, and how to implement high-integrity nature-based projects with the highest carbon mitigation impact while improving livelihoods and protecting biodiversity.

Climate change is altering the Earth’s rotation. As the Earth’s ice masses melt, the planet’s rotation changes as well. For the first time, researchers at ETH Zürich have been able to fully explain the various causes of long-term polar motion using the most comprehensive modeling to date, employing AI methods. Their model and observations indicate that climate change and global warming will have a greater impact on the Earth’s rotational speed than the effect of the moon, which has been determining the increase in the length of the day for billions of years.

Are there places in the world that serve as “biodiversity havens”? Recent research has identified nearly 17,000 such sites globally, spanning approximately 164 million hectares. These sites urgently require protection to prevent the anticipated extinction of thousands of rare species. Interestingly, almost 61% of these ‘Conservation Imperatives’ sites are situated in the tropics, with over three-quarters nestled within tropical rainforests. Furthermore, 38% of these sites are conveniently located near existing protected areas, simplifying their conservation through integration into these areas or linkage via wildlife corridors. "Targeting these areas for immediate protection offers an achievable win for nature conservation by heading off the sixth great extinction of life on Earth", explains Dr. Eric Dinerstein of RESOLVE, the lead author of the paper. These Conservation Imperatives are home to over 4,700 threatened species residing in some of the world’s most biodiverse yet endangered ecosystems. These species include not only mammals and birds that rely on intact habitats, such as the tamaraw in the Philippines and the Celebes crested macaque in Indonesia, but also range-restricted amphibians, reptiles, and rare plant species.

🐠 The urgency of the situation is clear: without immediate and extensive action, we stand to lose 90% of the world’s remaining coral reefs by 2050. Yet, hope is not lost. The Global Fund for Coral Reefs (GFCR) has recently pledged an additional US$25 million in grant funding to strengthen resilience efforts in coral nations. 🐚 A key initiative in this effort is a novel blended finance programme for Egypt’s Red Sea. This programme aims to establish the Egyptian Fund for Coral Reefs, with an anticipated US$50 million in private and public funding. The funds will be directed towards a sustainable blue economic transition and conservation efforts. These efforts encompass innovative solutions such as organic waste recycling for coastal farming, ecosystem restoration through aquaculture, and the installation of mooring systems to prevent boat-induced reef damage. 🐙 In addition to this, the GFCR Executive Board has announced an increase in funding for the Mesoamerican Region (MAR), as well as country programmes in Indonesia and the Philippines. A new initiative on Pemba Island, Zanzibar, has also been launched. As the leading global instrument for coral finance, the GFCR is committed to protecting and enhancing the resilience of at least three million hectares of coral reefs worldwide by 2030. This ambitious goal represents 25% of the Coral Reef Breakthrough target and approximately 12% of the world’s remaining reefs.
