Protecting forests is one of the most effective ways to address the #ClimateCrisis. UNEP works to preserve and restore forest ecosystems #ForPeopleForPlanet: decadeonrestoration.org/types-ecosyste…

Dirty river in, clean river out in Kingston, Jamaica. 🇯🇲

Indonesia’s rainforests are disappearing due to unsustainable palm oil production, but millions depend on this industry. To tackle this, the public & private sectors are working with local communities to save the forests.

From fruits, nuts & honey to edible insects & mushrooms, forests are nature's supermarkets, offering essential nutrients that sustain millions of people. This year on 21 March we celebrate #ForestDay with the theme 'Forests and foods'! ➡️ bit.ly/Forests2025

If we reach 1.5°C, this is what is going to happen: ‼️Every fraction of a degree matters—beyond 1.5°C, the risks and damages from extreme weather, sea-level rise, and biodiversity loss increase dramatically. No time to wait. #ActOnClimate #climate #energy #renewables

The Great Pacific Garbage Patch is now 1.6 million km²—twice the size of Texas—with 1.8 trillion plastic pieces, outweighing surface fish 6 to 1.

Forests are unsung #ClimateAction heroes. Up to 13 billion tonnes of carbon is stored in their trees and soil. UNESCO 🏛️ #Education #Sciences #Culture 🇺🇳 says protecting forests, including those recognized as World Heritage Sites, benefits the planet & all its people. whc.unesco.org/en/forests via United Nations

New report by World Meteorological Organization: 2024 was likely the warmest year of the past 175 years. While a single year above 1.5°C of warming does not mean that our temperature goals are out of reach, it is a wake-up call. 2025 is a critical year for climate action. 👉bit.ly/3DP5lXX

Solar panels have a dual purpose in this orchard. They produce clean electricity while shading apple trees from hail, frost and heavy rain. We have the solutions. Implement them. #ActOnClimate #ClimateEmergency #climate #energy #renewables

🇨🇷Costa Rica has now almost doubled the size of its rainforest. They turned it all around within a generation. It can be done. We can halt and reverse biodiversity loss for a more sustainable and healthier future. #KMGBF via World Economic Forum

Happy #ForestDay! From fruits, nuts & honey to edible insects & mushrooms, forests are nature's supermarkets, offering essential nutrients that sustain millions of people. ➡️ bit.ly/Forests2025

🍏 The food we eat, 🌬️ the air we breathe, 💧 the water we drink all rely on #biodiversity Protecting the planet's biodiversity means protecting our future. bit.ly/2PwEXpv via Food and Agriculture Organization #ClimateAction

🌊 Plastic pollution makes disasters worse. 🌀 It weakens natural defences like mangroves, clogs drainage during floods, strangles local economies. Tackling plastic waste isn’t just environmental — its vital to reduce disaster risks! #SDG12 #BeatWastePollution #ZeroWasteDay

Planting a tree today is a promise to the future.

The Earth is home to 1.2 million species,but they’re not evenly spread. Conservationists have identified 36 biodiversity hotspots that are rich in life but threatened by development & pollution.🦅🐒🐊 Watch this @WEF video to learn about biodiversity hotspots & why they matter👇

🔥 Wildfires are getting worse. Why? Climate change is making fire seasons longer, hotter and more destructive. But wildfires can be prevented — and it starts long before the flames ignite. 🎥 Watch the video to learn more. #ClimateAction #GenerationRestoration

In South Korea, built this bike lane covered by #solar panels. Cyclists are isolated from traffic, protected from the sun, and produces #cleanenergy at the same time! We have the solutions, implement them. #ActOnClimate #Climate #energy #solutions #cdnpoli #GreenNewDeal

Coral reefs protect coasts, nurture biodiversity, and help feed millions. But they’re vanishing fast. Every fraction of a degree counts in the fight to #SaveOurOcean. #UNOC3

We must protect both. About half of Earth’s oxygen comes from the ocean 🌊🫁💙
