After months of deliberations, the Council of the European Union has adopted the Nature Restoration Law 🎉 This groundbreaking regulation aims to restore Europe’s damaged ecosystems and boost biodiversity. 🌿 By setting specific, legally binding targets and obligations for restoring various ecosystems, this law marks a significant victory for Europe’s nature, climate action, and citizens, as it aims to mitigate climate change and reduce the impacts of natural disasters. #EUPolicy #EnvironmentalLaw #NatureRestoration #ClimateAction #Biodiversity #Sustainability

🌿 Biodiversity has been a cornerstone of the EU legislative agenda. However, powerful lobbies are now trying to portray it as an obstacle to food and energy security. 🛑   ⏸ Calls for a 'pause' in environmental action risk pushing nature and our economies to the brink. We urge EU leaders to tackle climate change, biodiversity loss and pollution by strengthening the European Green Deal for a Nature-Positive Europe by 2030. 🌍💚 These are the proposals from the European Habitats Forum to make nature great again 📄👇 #RestoreNature #GreenDeal #Biodiversity

The EU has passed the Nature Restoration Law after a change of heart driven by Austria’s Federal Minister for Climate Action and Environment. This law aims to reverse decades of degradation and restore 20% of ecosystems by 2030, signaling a collective commitment to biodiversity repair. “It is historic because it will set legally binding targets for member states to start restoring many degraded ecosystems, from forests to freshwater. It will restore nature in cities, and restore pollinators.” https://lnkd.in/gWrXHwav Euronews #EU #NatureRestorationLaw #Biodiversity #ClimateAction

🌏 The EU has adopted the Nature Restoration Law, aiming to restore 20% of degraded ecosystems by 2030 and all by 2050. This landmark legislation aims to enhance biodiversity, support climate commitments, and promote ecosystem services. It includes specific targets for various ecosystems and obliges member states to create Nature Restoration Plans. IUCN applauds this significant move, highlighting its importance for a resilient and biodiverse future. Read more about this transformative step for nature and our planet: https://bit.ly/3KP482M

📢🌿The European Parliament just approved the #NatureRestorationLaw, meaning that: 🌊 The EU aims to restore at least 20% of land and sea areas by 2030, ⛰️ EU countries must restore at least 30% of habitats in poor condition by 2030, 60% by 2040, and 90% by 2050. Protecting and restoring nature is not only fundamental to tackle the twin crisis of biodiversity loss and climate change, but also offers major social and economic benefits.

We mark #WorldOceansDay with good news for the ocean: 1. The adoption of the #BBNJ Treaty of the High Seas to protect marine biodiversity with clear rules to conduct environmental impact assessments. 2. The ever-growing EU #MissionOcean to restore our ocean & waters with €106 million funding research. 3. 40 new commitments for a safe, clean and sustainable ocean with a backing of €3.5 billion for the ocean. #OceanEU

During the conference, participants will have the opportunity to discuss issues related to the climate and green agenda and how to unite for sustainable infrastructure and biodiversity protection. #csftirana2023 https://lnkd.in/dbEZRSie

Look down! This is where the solution to climate and biodiversity crises is -peatlands 💚 They capture and store carbon. They prevent natural disasters. They are biodiversity hotspots. They boost water retention and quality. They regulate our climate. But our peatlands need to be ✨healthy✨ to deliver all these benefits! We can't effectively #RestoreNature without restoring drained peatlands. Yet, the European Parliament deleted peatland restoration in its position on the Nature Restoration Law. Peatlands are the key solution to tackle the climate and biodiversity crises. They must be included in the Nature Restoration Law!

🇪🇺 The EU Council has sealed the deal on the EU Nature Restoration Law. This is a major step toward combating #climate change and #biodiversity loss, aligning with the goal of limiting global warming to 1.5 degrees. Key objectives include: ➡️ Restoring 20% of Europe's #land and #sea areas by 2030. ➡️ Revitalizing all #endangered habitats by 2050. This law promises enhanced #carbon capture, improved flood protection, and better water quality. Effective collaboration and adequate funding are key to its success. #EnvironmentalLaw #ClimateChange #Biodiversity #Sustainability #EU #NatureRestoration #GreenLogistics #GHG #GlobalWarming

🌿🌍 Exciting News for Nature and Climate! 🌍🌿 The European Union(EU) has just introduced a groundbreaking Nature Restoration Law aimed at reviving our precious ecosystems. Here are the key objectives and targets: Objectives: 🌱 Enable long-term recovery of biodiverse and resilient nature 🌡️ Contribute to climate mitigation and adaptation goals 🌐 Meet international commitments By 2030, the law aims to restore at least 20% of the EU's land and sea areas, with the ultimate goal of restoring all ecosystems in need by 2050. At Acres of Ice, we are deeply committed to restoring glacial ecosystems, a crucial part of the broader mission outlined by the EU's Nature Restoration Law. Glacial regions are vital for: Preserving freshwater resources Maintaining unique biodiversity Regulating global climate patterns Our initiatives align perfectly with the EU's objectives. By restoring glacial habitats, we contribute to: Biodiverse and resilient nature: Glacial ecosystems support unique plant and animal species adapted to cold environments. Climate mitigation and adaptation: Glaciers play a critical role in reflecting sunlight and regulating Earth's temperature. Our work helps mitigate global warming and supports climate adaptation strategies. International commitments: Through our restoration projects, we help meet global environmental goals. Together, we can make a significant impact on our planet's health. Let's support and spread the word about these vital initiatives! 🌳🐝🐬 #NatureRestoration #ClimateAction #Biodiversity #EUEnvironment #SustainableFuture #GlacialRestoration #AcresOfIce
