There have been calls for a common approach to tackling climate change and biodiversity loss for years, but a coordinated global policy is still lacking. The world is facing unprecedented changes in climate conditions and drastic loss of biological diversity, which threatens humanity. The breakdown of the Earth's climate and the rapid decline of wildlife are interconnected, but the response of governments to these crises currently fails to recognize the deep connection between the two.
There have been calls for a joint approach to tackling climate change and biodiversity loss for years, but a coordinated global policy is still lacking.
