Another call from Nature.
#unep #biodiversity
Our natural ecosystems are finding it hard to cope with the different pressures and are unable to adjust. If we continue depleting resources and destroying our environment, soon it will be too late for them to recover, even with our help.
Nature is sending us another wake-up call with the COVID-19 pandemic, alongside Australian bushfires, Mount Kilimanjaro fire outbreak, broken heat records and the worst locust invasion in Kenya for 70 years. Our destruction of nature is hurting humanity. While our immediate priority must be to protect people from COVID-19 and prevent its spread, our long-term response must tackle climate change and biodiversity loss.
