Nature is critical to meeting Sustainable Development Goals and limiting global warming to 1.5 degrees. Adoption of a bold global biodiversity framework that addresses the key drivers of nature loss is needed to secure our own health and well-being alongside that of the planet.
At the upcoming 2022 UN Biodiversity Conference (COP 15), governments from around the world will come together to agree on a new set of goals to guide global action through 2030 to halt and reverse nature loss.
What needs to happen at COP 15:
-Adoption of an equitable and comprehensive framework matched by the resources needed for implementation
-Clear targets to address overexploitation, pollution, fragmentation and unsustainable agricultural practices
-A plan that safeguards the rights of indigenous peoples and recognizes their contributions as stewards of nature
-Finance for biodiversity and alignment of financial flows with nature to drive finances toward sustainable investments and away from environmentally harmful ones
