Why biodiversity is so important

We need to protect and conserve at least 30% of the planet, but how do we decide where to protect? Key Biodiversity Areas are a critical tool for focusing on the most important places for nature. https://bit.ly/3gYL9HB #KBAs Key Biodiversity Areas

Biodiversity is not evenly distributed on the planet: 2.5% of Earth’s land area is home to 43% of unique species. On the island of Manadagascar the hotspot of Vohimana hosts 5% of vertebrates of its unique fauna on just 5 square km. It is also home of 160 medicinal plants. 6 of them are being exported for the European and American cosmetic and pharmaceutical industry. Vohimana is now classified as a Humanity Intangible Cultural Heritage recognizing the knowledge of its traditional healer. The place had no conservation statut . The challenge was to involve the local communities into the sustainable management of the forest and in the degraded land restoration. It appeared possible through enhancing the value of the sustainable use of the natural resources. Setting up such sheme requires local NGOs in partnership with the private sector. Will the northern private sector funds such initiatives and their duplication quickly enough and with the opening mind required to experiment new models?

Biodiversity, the variety of life on Earth, is crucial for ecosystem stability and resilience. Unfortunately, environmental pollution, caused by factors like industrial emissions and plastic waste, poses a significant threat to biodiversity by disrupting ecosystems and endangering numerous species. Conservation efforts are essential to mitigate these impacts and safeguard the planet's rich biological diversit

Biodiversity is the backbone of life on our planet, and it's essential to protect it. The strongest ecosystems are the most diverse ones, which makes protecting and restoring our wild spaces more critical than ever. On this #InternationalDayForBiologicalDiversity, let's come together and reinforce our understanding of the importance of biodiversity. It's time to regenerate our landscapes to their former glory. Let's make a difference! #BioDiversityDay

#ActforWetlands Join us in celebrating #WorldWetlandDay 2024 as we recognize the indispensable role of wetlands in sustaining life. Let's come together to honor and protect these invaluable ecosystems that support biodiversity, regulate water cycles, and provide essential habitats for countless species. #EcosystemServices #NaturebasedSolutions #Biodiversity #WaterConservation #NaturePreservation
