Conserving biodiversity for people & planet. Halting and reversing nature loss while meeting human needs
Nature underpins all human wealth and society but is under serious threat, with over a million species threatened with extinction and natural habitats disappearing.
People depend on nature and its services for food, fibre, medicine, and other products, but modern production systems often cause biodiversity loss and are vulnerable to environmental change. Addressing the global loss of nature, and these production challenges, is vital for the long-term health of ecosystems and the services they provide to people.
