This short video clip highlights the vital role trees play in preserving and supporting our planet's biodiversity. Can you hear the Weaver birds' calls? If so, let's take action! Plant another tree and conserve the mature ones.

We are at a critical juncture in protecting ocean life and habitats for generations to come. Join the conversation at the link below on Wed, Aug 7!

We all find Elephants to be Majestic! Here are some reasons that truly make them environmental champions: (image capture from last week) 🌿 Keystone Species: Elephants play a crucial role in their ecosystems by dispersing seeds through their dung and creating water holes for other animals, maintaining ecological balance and biodiversity. 🌳 Forest Gardeners: Elephants contribute to forest health by clearing small trees and shrubs, preventing overgrowth and fostering the growth of new plants, maintaining a diverse ecosystem. 💧 Water Conservation: During dry seasons, elephants dig for water, creating water holes that benefit wildlife, sustaining life in arid regions, and sharing water resources. 🌱 Nutrient Recycling: Elephant dung is rich in nutrients, fertilizing the soil, supporting plant growth, and sustaining habitat productivity for a healthy ecosystem. 🐘 Cultural Symbols of Conservation: Iconic in many cultures, elephants symbolize wisdom and environmental protection, raising awareness and support for sustainable practices and preserving natural resources. #environmentalchampions #ecology #biodiversity #greenworld

🌱 GROW on The Learning Hub: A Microforest Initiative: 🌱 Did you know that, in 2023, AKF planted 8.2 million trees, including 526,192 as part of microforests in 11 countries around the world? The GROW Microforest Initiative is more than just planting trees; it's about building a future where we can all thrive together. Micro-forests are small, dense, biodiverse forests that grow fast in urban and rural areas alike, and provide food, fodder, and medicine thus supporting the wellbeing of communities. The initiative prioritises indigenous species and plants as they are essential for strengthening biodiversity, environmental restoration, and carbon sequestration. 🌳 Learn how to plant your own microforest here: https://lnkd.in/eM7VFYaq #AKFTheLearningHub #Microforest #EnvironmentalImpact #Biodiversity #SustainableDevelopment

Did you know that Australia is among only 17 countries that are home to ‘mega-diverse’ ecosystems? This September is Biodiversity Month, which both celebrates the environment’s natural biodiversity and also highlights the urgent need to care and protect it. You can take part in Biodiversity Month by taking your unwanted or expired medications to your local pharmacy for responsible disposal, thus ensuring that they won’t contaminate our precious ecosystem.

Rémy Cointreau believes in the butterfly effect 🦋….that “small” actions can make a difference, in particular if we join forces with other committed stakeholders!   We are proud to share this beautiful video, produced by our partner WWF México, that explains the magic around monarch butterflies - its positive impact on the local community and its annual 4500km migration from Mexico to Canada – but also the urgent need to preserve them (they have entered the IUCN Red List in July 2022) in the face of climate change.   Concretely: - In 2023, 80,500 tree plants have been produced with the financial support of Rémy Cointreau and another 80,000 will be grown in 2024 🌱. - 75 hectares of the Michoacan forest (where monarchs are wintering) have been restored and another 80 hectares will be restored in 2024 🌳. - Finally, a dozen of pollinator gardens will be established in the Monarch Butterfly Flyway in the coming years 🐞.   #sustainableexception #butterflyregenerationprogram

In 2023, the Aga Khan Foundation (AKF) planted over 8.2 million trees globally, including 526,192 trees in microforests across 11 countries, through the GROW Microforest Initiative. This initiative goes beyond simply planting trees; it aims to foster sustainable environments where communities can prosper. Microforests, small yet rich in biodiversity, are rapidly developed in both urban and rural settings. They offer resources like food, fodder, and medicine, enhancing community well-being. By focusing on native species, the initiative strengthens biodiversity, aids in environmental restoration, and boosts carbon capture. #akf
