The science is
clear: we are on the brink of missing the opportunity to
limit global warming to 1.5°C. For the first time in 10
years of analysis, it looks at how large annual cuts
would need to be from 2020 to 2030 to stay on track to
meeting the Paris goals.

Our planet’s
ecosystems are declining rapidly, jeopardizing our own
survival — we urgently need to rebuild what has been
lost.
|
|
|
Nature is
declining globally at rates unprecedented in human
history — and the rate of species extinctions is
accelerating, with grave impacts on people around the
world now likely, according to a landmark report by the
Intergovernmental Science-Policy Platform on
Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services (IPBES).

The Danish
economist and environmentalist took up her new role our
Executive Director in June, promising to prioritize
greater action on climate change, biodiversity loss and
pollution during her four-year tenure.
|
|
|
As leaders
gathered to boost climate action, UNEP launched a number
of initiatives, including announcing that the world’s
largest investors signed on to decarbonize economies.
UNEP honoured environmental advocates, innovators and
young people with bold ideas for shaping a sustainable
future.
|
|
|
2020
is being hailed as a “super year” for the
environment.
Stay
tuned to follow the latest scientific developments
and hear UNEP’s work to galvanize communities
around the globe to build a healthier, more
sustainable planet for all. |
