SUMMARY:International Mother Earth Day
DESCRIPTION:When Mother Earth sends us a message\nMother Earth is clearly urging a call to action. Nature is suffering. Oceans filling with plastic and turning more acidic. Extreme heat\, wildfires and floods\, have affected millions of people. Even these days\, we are still trying to get back on track from COVID-19\, a worldwide health pandemic linked to the health of our ecosystem. \nClimate change\, man-made changes to nature as well as crimes that disrupt biodiversity\, such as deforestation\, land-use change\, intensified agriculture and livestock production or the growing illegal wildlife trade\, can accelerate the speed of destruction of the planet. \nThis is the second Mother Earth Day celebrated within the UN Decade on Ecosystem Restoration. Ecosystems support all life on Earth. The healthier our ecosystems are\, the healthier the planet – and its people. Restoring our damaged ecosystems will help to end poverty\, combat climate change and prevent mass extinction. But we will only succeed if everyone plays a part. \nFor this International Mother Earth Day\, let’s remimd ourselves – more than ever – that we need a shift to a more sustainable economy that works for both people and the planet. Let’s promote harmony with nature and the Earth. Join the global movement to restore our world! \n\n\n\n\nLet’s act now\nThere are multiple\, feasible and effective options to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and adapt to human-caused climate change\, and they are available now\, according to the last UN Climate Change report backed by science. \nIPCC REPORT \n\n\nDid you know?\n\n\n\nThe planet is losing 4.7 million hectares of forests every year – an area larger than Denmark.\nA healthy ecosystem helps to protect us from these diseases. Biological diversity makes it difficult for pathogens to spread rapidly.\nIt is estimated that around one million animal and plant species are now threatened with extinction.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMatt BirdMatt Bird is the Founder\, CEO\, and Editor-in-Chief of ESG News. He brings 25 years of experience in corporate strategy\, media\, fintech\, and communications\, including 15 years specializing in news and journalism.
