Happy International Day for Biological Diversity! 🌸 A recent landmark study with contributions from the University of Oxford showed that conservation actions are not only effective, but transformational in halting and reversing biodiversity decline: https://bit.ly/3yt1Fbf So while climate change and habitat loss can often feel overwhelming, there is real evidence that our environmental efforts are working! With increased awareness, more funding and continued targeted action, we can all help protect our planet for future generations. I'm proud to have helped develop a new hub of sustainability-focused content for those of us working in the built environment. Planning Portal's Sustainability Hub provides all the information homeowners and professionals need to plan and build sustainably, including simple breakdowns of key concepts, legislation, and the available government funding.

Today is International Day for Biological Diversity, or 'World Biodiversity Day' for short! This year’s theme is ‘Be Part of the Plan’, the call to action by the United Nations 🇺🇳 to encourage everyone – from governments, businesses and lawmakers, to local communities and individuals – to highlight the ways in which they are supporting the ‘Biodiversity Plan’ - which supports the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals - on an ambitious pathway to a world living in harmony with nature by 2050: ‘As the global community is called to re-examine our relationship to the natural world, one thing is certain: despite all our technological advances we are completely dependent on healthy and vibrant ecosystems for our water, food, medicines, clothes, fuel, shelter and energy, just to name a few.’ 💡We’re pleased to say that Smiley Monroe has a plan and we're preparing to launch our first ever sustainability strategy, whose 🌍 Planet pillar covers a range of material topics from Raw Materials Sourcing to Biodiversity & Land, and is aligned to 7 of the 17 UN Sustainable Development Goals established in 2015 – including Goal #15 Life on Land. As a manufacturing business with a global supply chain, we can influence progress with 2 specific targets: 15.2 End deforestation and restore degraded forests; and 15.5 Protecting biodiversity and natural habitats by 2030. ▶️ To read more about our plan, visit: https://lnkd.in/gE3hY4cj #WorldBiodiversityDay

Calling all corporate sustainability folk working on nature and biodiversity! Our first-ever State of Biodiversity and Business survey is live. We're looking to compile an overview of corporate action on nature, identify real-world examples and develop a baseline for future comparison. We'd love it if you could take the 5-minute survey, regardless of how involved your company is with nature issues right now. https://lnkd.in/gsv9tNsm

Protecting biodiversity and safeguarding the planet holds crucial significance for businesses.    From the raw materials we source, to the products we manufacture, and the services we provide, we depend on stable and resilient ecosystems to operate effectively. With vast global reach and significant influence, corporate enterprises are at a critical juncture to either exacerbate this crisis, or contribute to a solution.   At adm Group, we recognize this responsibility, and are committed to charting a pathway towards a more biodiverse-friendly future. On the #InternationalDayOfBiodiversty, hear from Senior Sustainability Manager Ali Nora Pellegrino how we are stepping up to the challenge and continuing to embed biodiversity into the heart of our sustainability commitments. https://lnkd.in/ew5hpBqe   #Biodiversity #Sustainability #SustainableBusiness #FromPurposeToImpact

The International Day for Biodiversity theme for 2024 is "Be part of the Plan" This day is a call to our global community to respect, protect and rebuild out biological wealth. It is an absolute truth that we remain completely dependent on nature and healthy ecosystems not only for our food and water, but medicines, fuel, clothes, shelter, amongst others. Governments, lawmakers, non-governmental institutions, individuals, all have a role to play in the preservation of biodiversity. There's a renewed hope with the adoption of the Kunming-Monreal Global Biodiversity Framework, signed in 2022, that sets specific measurable goals to stop and reverse the loss and damage of our natural resources by 2050, and Linnea is fully committed to this goal and giving back to nature, implementing it at the core of its business. #Linnea #BiodiversityDay #PartOfThePlan #ForNature
