Yes. Your Proton Account OpenPGP encryption keys are stored on your device in a recovery file. The recovery file is encrypted using a randomly generated symmetric encryption key. We call this derived key the recovery secret, which is uploaded to our servers.
When you unlock your account using device data recovery, the recovery secret is downloaded to your device and used to decrypt your Proton PGP keys. At no point does Proton have access to your account keys.
The Evidence-Based Practices Resource Center provides communities, clinicians, policy-makers and others with the information and tools to incorporate evidence-based practices into their communities or clinical settings.
SAMHSA's mission is to lead public health and service delivery efforts that promote mental health, prevent substance misuse, and provide treatments and supports to foster recovery while ensuring equitable access and better outcomes.
The time is now to invest in nature. Countries are responding to the economic impacts of COVID by allocating trillions of dollars to fiscal stimulus packages and beginning to develop longer-term economic recovery programs. Governments will likely invest much more to get economies and societies back in shape over the next years.
The COVID-19 pandemic is forcing us all to re-think the status quo, opening the door for sustained investments in nature and Nature-based Solutions (NbS) to be part of the recovery. Investing in nature has immediate and long-term benefits for economic development and stability, community health and well-being as well as climate change resilience and biodiversity conservation. A nature-based recovery can also build the foundation for reaching the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
Our ambition for the IUCN Nature-based Recovery Initiative is to ensure that governments direct at the very least 10% of overall investments to nature and that economic investment post-COVID does no additional harm to nature and livelihoods.
Expanding and sharing our understanding of the role of nature and Nature-based Solutions (NbS) in recovery;
Assessing financial investments in recovery packages and how they can be driven to become greener and nature-positive ; and
Inviting and engaging with IUCN Members & partners to elevate the case for a nature-based recovery.
IUCN will update this page with additional information as it becomes available.

There is currently a clear benefit for many countries to utilize wastewater-based epidemiology (WBE) as part of ongoing measures to manage the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) global pandemic. Since most wastewater virus concentration methods were developed and validated for nonenveloped viruses, it is imperative to determine the efficiency of the most commonly used methods for the enveloped severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). Municipal wastewater seeded with a human coronavirus (CoV) surrogate, murine hepatitis virus (MHV), was used to test the efficiency of seven wastewater virus concentration methods: (A-C) adsorption-extraction with three different pre-treatment options, (D-E) centrifugal filter device methods with two different devices, (F) polyethylene glycol (PEG 8000) precipitation, and (G) ultracentrifugation. MHV was quantified by reverse-transcription quantitative polymerase chain reaction and the recovery efficiency was calculated for each method. The mean MHV recoveries ranged from 26.7 to 65.7%. The most efficient methods were adsorption-extraction methods with MgCl2 pre-treatment (Method C), and without pre-treatment (Method B). The third most efficient method used the Amicon Ultra-15 centrifugal filter device (Method D) and its recovery efficiency was not statistically different from the most efficient methods. The methods with the worst recovery efficiency included the adsorption-extraction method with acidification (A), followed by PEG precipitation (F). Our results suggest that absorption-extraction methods with minimal or without pre-treatment can provide suitably rapid, cost-effective and relatively straightforward recovery of enveloped viruses in wastewater. The MHV is a promising process control for SARS-CoV-2 surveillance and can be used as a quality control measure to support community-level epidemic mitigation and risk assessment.
The COVID-19 pandemic caused the global economy to shrink by an estimated 3.5% in 2020. 8.8% of global working hours were lost, equivalent to 255 million full-time jobs, and severe long-term economic consequences are predicted. Governments are allocating funds to recover their economies from the pandemic.
Global fiscal support to stimulate and recover economies has reached USD 16.7 trillion (April 2021). Fiscal policy actions have concentrated in advanced economies but are constrained by financing in many developing countries.
Nature has been largely neglected in existing stimulus packages, even though nature supports the majority of global GDP and the processes that provide humanity with clean air, food, and water. So far, only USD 56 billion of spending is directed towards natural capital measures (UNEP). Moreover, stimulus with harmful effects on the environment exceeds that with beneficial effects on nature.
Unless much more stimulus is redirected to initiatives that protect and restore nature, recovery investments risk exacerbating the biodiversity and climate crises and so ultimately undermining economies in the future.
Over half (55%) of global GDP depends on healthy ecosystems but unsustainable economic activity is driving nature loss faster than ever before. This degradation of nature puts economies at risk. Changes in crop supplies caused by the decline in pollinating insects alone, for instance, could result in an annual net loss of USD 191 billion globally.
Nature is a source of economic prosperity for many countries, especially those that rely heavily upon it for resources and production. Investment in nature can create jobs, aid economic recovery, bring economic benefits for society, and support nature-based solutions to global goals. Nature, for example, increases the resilience of countries to climate change, helps reduce the risk of disasters, protects human health, and improves water and food security.
Investment in nature provides effective policy options to create jobs and support socio-economic development. For example, IUCN found that forest landscape restoration in El Salvador created approximately 50 jobs per USD 1 million invested in ecosystem restoration. This is more jobs than were created by a similar investment in the manufacturing sector amongst others, and these jobs were concentrated in rural and low-income areas.
In addition to creating more than 60,000 jobs planting trees to support unemployed workers due to the pandemic, Pakistan has created about 5,000 jobs specifically for young people through projects to expand protected area coverage and list national parks on the IUCN Green List of Protected and Conserved Areas.
To mitigate the expansion of the Sahara Desert, the Great Green Wall Initiative aims to provide food security for 20 million people, create 350,000 jobs and sequester 250 million tonnes of carbon by 2030.
The Initiative, a partnership of 21 African countries and international organisations, restored approximately 18 million hectares of land, created over 350,000 jobs, and generated around USD 90 million between 2007 and 2018.
Projects which governments might direct stimulus to include: restoring ecosystems such as forests, wetlands and mangroves; expanding protected areas; implementing sustainable agricultural and land management practices.
Alongside creating jobs, these projects simultaneously allow governments to address other societal challenges. Ecosystem restoration to mitigate climate change, for example, could count towards Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) under the Paris Agreement. Actors and investors should consider the IUCN Global Standard for Nature-based Solutions throughout project design and implementation.
The economic impact of the pandemic varies considerably around the world. Fiscal distress due to debt has increased, often affecting countries with a high number of threatened species. Programmes of debt relief and restructure offer another opportunity to invest in nature conservation.
Cross-referencing data from the IUCN Red List of Threatened SpeciesTMwith measures of debt distress and potential for nature-based solutions for climate change shows countries in urgent need of assistance to overcome the triple crises of economy, nature, and climate. Several countries in Africa, Southeast Asia, and South America emerge as priorities.
