#Rivers are the lifelines of the planet, carrying sediments, nutrients, and #freshwater across landscapes, while also being home to some of the most charismatic #species on Earth. Most importantly, they provide nearly all of the world’s accessible freshwater, making wetlands vital for all life on Earth. 🌎 Restoring river flows and managing water resources equitably ensure ecosystems, economies, and people worldwide remain resilient.💧 👉 Safeguarding and restoring our #wetlands is vital to sustaining the delicate balance between people, nature, and our shared future. 🌱 #WeNeedWetlands to mitigate #climatechange, ensure #WaterResilience, and limit #BiodiversityLoss #GenerationRestoration #ForNature 🌱

Discover the countless ways trees enrich our environment, communities, and holistic well-being. Let's uncover some of their standout advantages. 💡 Energy Conservation: Save energy with urban trees! By providing natural shade, they reduce the need for air conditioning and heating. #weneedtrees #treesneedus #saveourshade

They’re becoming denser in colder, wetter regions. 1t.org is a platform for the trillion trees community, which aims to conserve, restore and grow a trillion trees worldwide by 2030.

We need to try and curb our "hedonistic" tendencies of putting on something pretty and glittery, which also goes to how we reforest our lands. Yep! The planting of native species in every region and area is the best way to make sure that your plants have more chances to survive. This short video clip represents my sentiment well!! P.S. Planting oil palm trees in place of rainforest is NOT a considerate reforestation effort, as oil palm trees do not attract the same fauna, nor do they protect the native dwellers of rainforests. #reforestation #nativespecies

AMAZON , Don’t destroy AMAZON Our forests are disappearing at an alarming rate. Over the past few decades, we've witnessed the devastating impact of deforestation, with millions of acres of lush, vibrant ecosystems being cleared for various purposes. This alarming trend not only destroys the natural habitats of countless species but also contributes to climate change, soil erosion, and the disruption of vital water cycles. It's time we take action to protect and restore our precious forests and oceans and finally Earth before it's too late. NATO or other Organizations are also responsible for protecting our forests and oceans and all humanity with peace . They should respect to all thoughts without considering racism and finally developing to keep our planet Earth . We have no other place to live as alternative except Earth . Let’s young leaders control future of our planet. NATO and Organization are responsible to bring peace not to manufacturing war guns and tools . We are all in one ship . Please don’t make hole our ship .

The #TrillionTreeProgram is a global initiative aimed at planting, restoring, and conserving 1 trillion trees by 2050. Its importance for climate resilience can be seen in several ways: 1. #CarbonSequestration: Trees absorb #CO2, a key greenhouse gas, helping to reduce atmospheric carbon levels and slow climate change. 2. #OxygenProduction: Trees produce oxygen, essential for life, which helps maintain air quality and supports biodiversity. 3. #SoilErosionPrevention: Tree roots hold soil in place, preventing erosion and landslides, and maintaining soil health. 4. #BiodiversityConservation: Trees provide habitats for countless species, preserving ecosystem balance and supporting wildlife. 5. #ClimateRegulation: Trees influence local climates, providing shade, cooling the air through evapotranspiration, and blocking winds. 6. #WaterCycleRegulation: Trees play a crucial role in maintaining water cycles, preventing floods and droughts. 7. #CommunityEngagement: The program promotes community involvement, education, and economic opportunities, fostering a sense of ownership and #environmentalstewardship. 8. #ClimateChangeMitigation: Achieving the trillion-tree goal could remove up to 10 gigatons of CO2 equivalent from the atmosphere annually, helping meet Paris Agreement targets. The Trillion Tree Program's success is crucial for building climate resilience, supporting ecosystems, and ensuring a sustainable future.

Video - Stronger, Cheaper, Self-healing: Mangroves are a Great Solution against Coastal Erosion Nature-based solutions like mangroves are smarter, cheaper, and better for the planet. Why spend millions on concrete walls and barriers when nature has a better solution? Mangroves are nature’s coastal superheroes: Slow down erosion, Absorb extreme water events, Cheaper than concrete, Self-healing & self-replicating, Work indefinitely (kind of!) -UN-Habitat (United Nations Human Settlements Programme) https://lnkd.in/gnKYUc3T #Coastal #CoastalNews #CoastalProtection

Water Doesn't Come from the Tap, It Comes from the Catchment!!. Ever turned on your faucet and wondered where that life-giving liquid -WATER really comes from? It's not just magic: it's a meticulously managed ecosystem! Water flows from mountains, rivers, and reservoirs—our catchments—where Nature's filtration system #cleans and #nurtures it. This hidden source faces threats from #pollution, #climatechange, and urban growth. So, next time you fill your #glass, remember: protecting our catchments is vital for our #future. Let’s rethink our #relationship with water and #advocate for the #environments that #sustain it!. #Sdg6 #Catchment2Tap #LeadingTheChange #JourneyOfWater

The Water You Drink Tomorrow Depends on the Catchments You Protect Today!. As we turn on our #taps, let's not forget the journey of the water that quenches our thirst. It originates from our precious catchment areas - the #lungs of our #planet, where NATURE #purifies and #nurtures it. But these areas are under threat from #pollution, #climatechange, and #encroachment . The consequences? Reduced water quality, decreased biodiversity, and a less sustainable future for our communities. It's time to invest in the health of our catchments!By doing so, we ensure: 1. A consistent supply of clean water for generations to come 2. Thriving ecosystems that support biodiversity and mitigate climate change 3. Resilient communities that can withstand environmental challenges Let's work together to prioritize catchment conservation and sustainable water management. Our #planet, our #children, and our #future depend on it! What will you do today to protect the water of tomorrow?. Share your ideas and let's start a conversation!
