How our work impacts the SDGs
Life on land
We protect and restore terrestrial ecosystems and do everything in our power to reverse land degradation and biodiversity loss.
Climate action
The IPPC made a list with climate mitigation options in their renowned report. Among the most influential actions were 'reduced conversion of forests and other ecosystems' and 'ecosystem restoration, afforestation, reforestation.
Another report published in Nature Climate Change, suggested that reintroducing just nine species would help limit global warming to less than the 1.5°C (2.7°F) threshold set by the Paris Agreement. The report calls trophic rewilding, or restoring and protecting the functional roles of animals in ecosystem as a major overlooked climate solution.
Life below water
Our ocean is a crucial source of resources and plays a critical role in regulating our climate. We do everything in our power to protect ocean ecosystem and to reverse ocean biodiversity loss.
Good health and well-being
Biodiversity is our common heritage and humanity’s first and foremost life-supporter. It supports everything in nature that we need to survive: food, clean water, medicine, and shelter. Decreased biodiversity will eventually also lead to decreased health and well-being for people.
