At the Science-Policy Forum for Biodiversity at #COP15 this morning - a timely reminder by that conservation alone (orange curve) will not allow us to bend the curve of biodiversity loss, it requires changes in modes of production and consumption.

Costa Rica, once home to rampant logging, has now almost doubled the size of its rainforest. They turned it all around within a generation. It can be done.
Protect people and the planet. #COP15

Why does the world still allow trophy hunting? We've done so much harm already. RT if you think there should be a worldwide ban on this barbaric practice.
Nature is amazing. Protect it.

Getting pretty sick of this. I’m at a UN biodiversity conference, ten sandwich/bagel/wrap options at cafe here. Only one that doesn’t contain meat.
How is this message not getting through. #Cop15 Also hardly any mention of dietary changes in the text. (1/2)

We are finally starting to forge a peace pact with nature.
Delegates at #COP15 have agreed on a new Global Biodiversity Framework.
This is an important step for determined diplomacy and I urge all countries to deliver on their commitments.

The last wave goodbye.
They spend their lives peacefully dispersing tree and flower seeds.
But 98% of their forest was destroyed for raising cattle, so we can soon include the extinction of the Brown spider monkeys of Venezuela in the price of beef.

Our planet is seeing record-breaking biodiversity loss.
It’s now or lost forever.
Humanity has an urgent responsibility to build a healthy future. #COP15

Final negotiations underway at #COP15.
Looks like a mixed bag:
A commitment to protect 30% of the earth by 2030 seems likely, which is great.
But a lot more is needed, including a clear roadmap on how to halt species extinctions.

Nature is fundamental to human survival, but it is being destroyed at catastrophic rates. To stop and reverse nature loss by 2030, leaders must take bold actions #ForNature at #COP15.
There is no time to wait.

Decision time approaches at #COP15.
We need to agree on clear goals:
🟢 Restoring 6 billion ha of land & marine ecosystems
🟢 The 30 x 30 target to protect biodiversity
🟢 25% reduction of our ecological footprint by 2030
Nature is our ship.
We must ensure it stays afloat.
