John,
15,000 scientists sent out an SOS – a "warning to humanity" that if we
don't stop polluting, our planet is doomed.
The facts are terrifying: species are going extinct at 1000 times the
natural rate. 90% of the Great Barrier Reef is dead or dying. Oceans are
so choked with plastic that fish are addicted to eating it.
But scientists have discovered something else – a kind of miracle that
could save us. If we can protect 30% or more of our planet from human
exploitation, our ecosystems will be able to stabilise and regenerate.
Life on earth will recover!
Our governments have already promised to do it. But with a key summit just
weeks away, rich countries haven’t given the plan the funding it needs to
actually happen. This miracle recovery plan needs a champion!
And it’s up to us.
If all of us chip in what we can, we can create a citizen fund for nature
that shows governments how much this means to us – then head to the Global
Summit on Biodiversity and challenge governments to match us 1000:1! All
while we face down the polluters, the poachers, and the blockers who want
to keep plundering nature for profit.
Chip in now – let’s bring this miracle recovery plan for our planet to
life.

Securing funding for this nature-saving plan is the cornerstone of the
upcoming summit. Many of the most biodiverse countries, where protections
are the most critical, simply can’t afford to enact and enforce the kind
of measures we need.
Without support from the Global North, the 30% by 2030 miracle recovery
plan can’t have the intended effect.
And just like on climate, we need immediate action to stop the intricate
web of life on Earth from collapsing on itself. Right now more than one
million species are on track for extinction in the coming decades.
This crisis is entirely our own making. More than a century of habitat
destruction, pollution, overharvesting, climate change, population growth,
and other human activities have pushed nature to the brink.
That’s why it’s up to us to turn this around and demand our governments
prioritize saving the natural world.
We have a second chance to save nature at the Global Biodiversity Summit
on February 25th where global leaders will decide major strategies to stop
our world as we know it from disappearing.
Together we can start a citizen nature fund, then use it to lobby our
governments to chip in the rest, showing them that citizens around the
world won’t rest until we save ourselves from the environmental crisis we
started. Anything extra we raise can be used on critical environmental
campaigns worldwide. Can you help make this miracle recovery plan a
reality?
