🤔What is a primary forest?

IUCN defines primary forests as naturally regenerated forests of native tree species, whose structure and dynamics are dominated by ecological and evolutionary processes, and where if there has been significant prior human intervention, it was long enough ago to have enabled an ecologically mature forest ecosystem to be naturally re-established.

Want to learn more about how primary forests differ from secondary or plantation forests?

Wetland habitats support a rich diversity of life, but 35% of the world’s #wetlands have disappeared in the last 50 years.

Wetland restoration not only increases #biodiversity but their ability to produce ecosystem services for the benefit of people.

RT @WorldResources: Adaptation is a major focus of #COP30 because it:

🫀Saves lives
💰Strengthens economies
💪Protects communities

Adaptation pays off even when disaster doesn’t strike. WRI research finds over 50% of monetized benefits from adaptation investments can occur even without climate shocks. In other words, adaptation is far more than a safety net — it’s a launchpad for growth.
