Turn up the sound and listen closely: the urgency is real. As countries gather to break records and achieve victory, another record is being shattered: Our planet's climate. Incredible human effort and determination bring success in the arena. It shows what's possible when people commit. Leaders must take action and tackle the climate crisis and nature loss – to protect people and the planet. Together, we can #ChangeClimateChange.

Creating a world where people live in harmony with nature. Together, anything is possible.
Info
Nature is our life-support system. That’s why WWF – an independent conservation organization active in nearly 100 countries – is tackling the deepening crisis of nature loss caused by human activities. Our ambition is to set nature on the path to recovery in the coming decade for the benefit of people and wildlife. Working with many others, we must protect and restore natural habitats, stop the mass extinction of wildlife, and make the way we produce and consume sustainable. ============ General information Thank you for joining the WWF LinkedIn community.

Breaking climate records is a dire warning, not a victory. We need more world leaders to act boldly and immediately to protect our planet and people. We call for a global effort to #ChangeClimateChange
This week the world has experienced the three hottest days on record. But let’s face facts: extreme temperatures are no longer a one day, one week or one month phenomenon. Earth is becoming hotter and more dangerous for everyone, everywhere. Billions of people are facing an extreme heat epidemic. Heat is estimated to kill almost half a million people a year. We know what is driving it: fossil fuel-charged, human-induced climate change. Extreme heat is the new abnormal. But the good news is we can save lives and limit its impact. Today we launched a global call to action focused on on: 🔸Caring for the most vulnerable. 🔸Stepping up protections for workers. 🔸Boosting resilience. 🔸Limiting temperature rise and phasing out fossil fuels. https://lnkd.in/d3r_azEX

Deputy Chief Conservation Officer, WWF International - working to make the world a better place for people and nature
As an Advisory Council Member of the Science Based Targets Network since 2019 it is really exciting to see this important milestone being delivered. Congratulation to the talented and resilient team that has worked incredible hard to make SBTN a reality. It is a true achievement to translate complex science into action for the corporate sector. Some of the achievements of the pilot have never been delivered before ... like companies actually setting conversion-free targets on their supply chains! We still have a journey to go but the pioneering companies and the fantastic scientists behind this work have my true admiration. Congratulations! Erin Billman, Martha Stevenson, Craig Beatty, Allen Townsend, Varsha Vijay, PhD #SBTN #ScienceBasedTargets #ForNature #NaturePositive
🚀 We are thrilled to announce the main 2024 release of updated technical guidance and new enabling resources for companies to set science-based targets for nature, informed by our trail-blazing cohort of pilot companies! 🎉 These updates enhance the feasibility and practicality of our methods while maintaining ambition and scientific rigor. ✅ New resources to improve accessibility and drive action have also been introduced, including a comprehensive corporate manual that serves as an entry-point into the technical guidance. 📝 SBTN’s target validation pilot highlighted key benefits of target-setting and reinforced that SBTN is closing a critical gap in corporate sustainability, including: 🌟 Increases ambition and drives science-based action on nature. 🤝 Provides credibility and a common language to advance engagement with stakeholders. 🧭 Acts as a trusted compass for companies to get to the right solutions. Stay tuned for more from us in September, when we'll share key pilot outcomes and lessons learned to pave the way for the next generation of targets. 🌍 👉🏽 Explore the latest resources: https://lnkd.in/gSzA6Yb9 🌱✨ #SBTN #ScienceBasedTargets #ForNature #NaturePositive

The deep sea is a realm of wonder and mystery. 🦑 But climate change, overfishing, and plastic pollution wreak havoc on our ocean. And now, this mesmerising underwater world is facing another threat: #DeepSeaMining. Together, we can stop this threat before it’s too late. Do you agree governments must take greater action to stop the irreversible damage of the deep sea?

📣 🏞 This is our window to secure a #NaturePositive economy for all by 2030. With less than 100 days until the UN Biodiversity #COP16, Business for Nature coalition has published a business statement outlining five high-level policy recommendations for governments to accelerate the implementation of the #Biodiversity Plan to drive corporate #Nature action. Endorsed by 130 businesses and financial institutions with combined revenues of $1.1 trillion, the statement calls on governments to adopt policies to: 🌍 Make sure business and financial actors protect nature and restore degraded ecosystems 🌎 Ensure sustainable resource use and management to reduce negative environmental impacts 🌏 Value and embed nature in decision-making and disclosure 🌍 Align all financial flows to transition to a nature-positive, net zero and equitable economy 🌎 Adopt or strengthen ambitious global agreements to address key nature loss challenges It’s time for governments to create an enabling regulatory framework and put nature at the heart of decision making. ℹ Find out more: https://lnkd.in/eJMCaYqh Thank you to some of the signatories: H&M Group (Hennes & Mauritz AB), Inter IKEA Group, Inditex, Ørsted, Reckitt, Unilever... full list on https://lnkd.in/e-T6Z9AE Andreas Beckmann Sheila Bonini Aaron Vermeulen Veronique Andrieux Ricardo Bosshard Sadayosi Tobai Daudi Sumba Ivan Tumuhimbise
