"We protect 80% of the planet's biodiversity, yet we are the most vulnerable"

Do you think turning 30% of the Earth into Protected Areas will help stop climate change? And nature-based solutions sound like part of the answer too?

In the run-up to the ground-breaking "Our land, our nature" congress, we asked leading experts and activists from around the world to explain just what’s wrong with “conservation.” Watch, then help us stop the biggest land grab in history, from those who are least responsible for the climate crisis – Indigenous peoples, who protect 80% of the world’s biodiversity, and other local peoples.
