    The oceans you swim in, the air you breathe, the trees you climb, the mountains you hike, the nature you cherish. It is all worth protecting. 
 Why are you speaking up for nature? 1. To combat climate change and its impacts. 2. To support sustainable practices and green initiatives. 3. To maintain biodiversity and healthy ecosystems. 4. To leave a positive legacy for future generations.

    Biodiversity is in quick decline. Already, the world has lost 20% of its mangroves, 35% of its forests and half of all grasslands and coral reefs. Next week, the biodiversity crisis will be the primary focus of COP16: The United Nations Biodiversity Conference held in Cali, Colombia. The Nature Conservancy will be in attendance, and we’ll be advocating for three important measures. Learn about our goals here: https://nature.ly/3BM82rP

    Earth’s oceans cover 70% of the planet and are home to incredible biodiversity. In celebration of the “Love For Our Oceans" initiative, Tiffany & Co. is committing USD 1M to The Nature Conservancy to help conserve oceans around the world for all those who rely on them. For each T Smile by Tiffany cord bracelet sold in participating locations, either USD 100 or 200, depending on the piece selected, will be given to TNC to support its ocean conservation efforts and goal of conserving 4 billion hectares of ocean by 2030.

Más de 14.000 personas de distintos países se reunirán en Cali, Colombia, desde el 21 de octubre al 1 de noviembre, en una cumbre clave para el futuro de la #biodiversidad, que abre una ventana de #EsperanzaParaLaNaturaleza. TNC, a través de las voces y experiencias de representantes de diversos países, estará presente en esta instancia decisiva con eventos y actividades en la Zona Verde, en Casa Humboldt; y en la Zona Azul, en el Pabellón Nature Positive. Estos encuentros abordarán temas como derechos humanos y género en los Planes Nacionales de Biodiversidad, avances en la meta 30x30, y el rol de las comunidades locales y pueblos indígenas en la conservación de la biodiversidad. Además, será posible acercarse a la biodiversidad y su relevancia con otros ojos, a través de la exposición fotográfica de Federico Rios (finalista del Premio Pulitzer 2024), sobre el Parque Nacional Natural "Serranía de Manacacías" en Casa Humboldt, o la exhibición de la serie Reto Aventura Orinoquía con Mauricio Salazar.

    Biodiversity. The rich fabric woven by millions of species and their interactions. Food, air, climate, economies and civilization itself depend on it. You can think of biodiversity as the secret sauce behind all healthy ecosystems, keeping them balanced and resilient. In turn, healthy habitats make our lives livable. 💧Forests filter water through their roots and oysters clean water with their gills. 🌊 Coral reefs and coastal ecosystems absorb the force of storm surges and waves, protecting coastal communities. 🌱 Tropical rainforests, wetlands and mangroves are some of the natural ecosystems that soak up a third of the world’s climate-changing emissions every year. Protecting biodiversity means protecting ourselves, as we are connected to everything living or that has ever lived on this planet. Join us in celebrating and safeguarding the incredible variety of life on Earth. Curious about how you can help? Click here: https://nature.ly/3XZKVSb

    🌐 With renewable energy capacity needing to triple by 2030 to keep global temperature increases below 1.5°C, the development of large infrastructure, such as wind farms, solar power plants and grid networks, both on land and in the ocean, will be crucial. 🌿 Increasingly, these will intersect with local people, wildlife, and natural ecological systems. Responsibly managing the impact of this significant infrastructure growth will be central to ensuring a rapid, sustainable, and equitable energy transition for all. 🤝 We are delighted to join the Responsible Renewables Infrastructure Coalition, convened by the World Economic Forum to promote equitable outcomes and protect biodiversity through actions such as community engagement, benefit sharing, job creation, and conservation of key species and ecosystems while accelerating the deployment of renewable energy infrastructure worldwide. #3xrenewables #smartsiting
