🌍 Nature is declining faster than ever. Since 1700:

🔹 Wetlands: -85% 🌊

🔹 Coral Reefs: -50% 🪸

🔹 Forests: -32% 🌳

🔹 Ecosystems: -47% overall

From the air we breathe to the water we drink to the soil that grows our food – humanity’s health depends on nature & biodiversity.

Let’s use the new year as an opportunity to reflect on this vital bond and the importance of making peace with nature.
