The island of Runde in Norway is home to more than 200 bird species - including Gannets, Shags, Puffins, Razorbills, Oystercatchers and many more. But their home is being overrun with plastic ghost gear - discarded at sea and collected by the birds to build their nests to raise their young. This is not the way it is supposed to be. Leaders must secure a strong global plastic pollution treaty to end the plastic crisis once and for all. #BanIt #StopPlasticPollution #INC5

Jaguars in Latin America are in danger. They’ve lost 50% of their original range, and threats like hunting and environmental changes persist. As apex predators, jaguars are critical for maintaining the intricate balance in their ecosystems, supporting both biodiversity and the healthy environments on which people depend. It’s time to rebrand their future – not just for jaguars, but for the planet we all share. #ConnectingTheSpots #InternationalJaguarDay 📸 Rooftop

#COP29 has now come to an end. So what happened? And what happens next? WWF’s Climate & Energy Global Practice Leader – Manuel Pulgar-Vidal – breaks it down 👇 “The world has been let down by this weak climate finance deal. At this pivotal moment for the planet, this failure threatens to set back global efforts to tackle the climate crisis. The science remains the same – We must accelerate action in this decade to prevent climate change from spiralling out of control. WWF will keep working to help make sure this multilateral process, that has proved its resilience before, is strengthened and can deliver the results the world needs.” 

🌍 A future free from plastic pollution is within reach—but only if we act boldly and collectively. In a recent opinion piece for Al Jazeera, our Director General, Kirsten Schuijt, highlights the urgent need for a robust and equitable global treaty to end plastic pollution. This is not just an environmental issue—it’s about protecting human health, biodiversity, and vulnerable communities disproportionately impacted by plastic waste. Plastic pollution doesn’t recognize borders, and neither should our solutions. A strong treaty can: ✅ Curb the production of unnecessary plastics. ✅ Support innovation in sustainable materials. ✅ Ensure justice for communities at the forefront of the waste crisis. It’s time for global leaders to seize this moment at #INC5 The treaty is a critical step toward a cleaner, safer, and more equitable planet. 🌿 Read the full story: https://lnkd.in/eg-6CQVm Al Jazeera English

Plastics are everywhere – in the air we breathe, the food we eat and the water we drink. Governments will soon gather for the final round of negotiations on a Global Plastic Pollution Treaty. Decisions made in these negotiations will determine the future for today’s children and generations to come.
