Biodiversity is the living stem of our planet.
It underpins human well-being in the present and future and its rapid decline threatens nature and people alike.
According to the latest global assessment by the Intergovernmental Science Policy Platform on Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services, human activities are causing biodiversity loss at an unprecedented rate.
However, the assessment also indicated that solutions exist and it is not too late to act.
Biodiversity underpins human well-being in the present and future and its rapid decline threatens nature and people alike.
On May 22, we celebrate “International Biological Diversity” Day to raise awareness about the vital importance of conserving biodiversity.
As a global center for environmental governance, Geneva is home to many organizations active in the protection of biodiversity.
The aim of ‘International Biological Diversity Day’, celebrated on May 22 each year, is to raise understanding and awareness about biodiversity issues. Although it was originally celebrated at the end of December, the UN General Assembly later decided to move the date to May 22, which commemorates the adoption of the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) in 1992.
The theme of IDB 2024: “IBD has no borders.”
The Convention Montreal is a call to action for all stakeholders to halt and reverse biodiversity loss by supporting the implementation of the Global Biodiversity Framework, also known as the Biodiversity Framework.
Scientists estimate that at least 8 million species of plants and animals, including humans, live on Earth today. The ecosystems in which these species live are incredibly complex and each piece of the ecosystem depends on the others like never before.
Humans are immersed in ecosystems and depend on these interconnected networks of plants, animals and people. However, human activities are having a significant impact on ecosystems. For example, climate change through man-made pollution and habitat loss. The removal of only one species as a result of pollution, habitat loss or some other natural or man-made factors can cause a domino effect that can affect the entire ecosystem.
