Nature for climate action

Healthy ecosystems are essential for safeguarding a livable planet. The loss and degradation of terrestrial and ocean ecosystems through conversion, overharvesting, fires and other pressures, is a major contributor to greenhouse gas emissions, and greatly diminishes the ability of humans and ecosystems to adapt to climate change. Yet the solutions to climate change exist in taking action on nature, including through nature-based solutions and ecosystembased adaptation.
