NATURE IS DISAPPEARING: THE AVERAGE SIZE OF WILDLIFE POPULATIONS HAS FALLEN BY A STAGGERING 73%

The latest edition of the Living Planet Report, which measures the average change in population sizes of more than 5,000 vertebrate species, shows a decline of 73% between 1970 and 2020.

DANGEROUS TIPPING POINTS ARE APPROACHING

Changes in the natural world may appear small and gradual – but over time, their cumulative impacts can add up to trigger a much larger change called a tipping point. Tipping points can be sudden, often irreversible, and potentially catastrophic for people and nature.

Nature is issuing a distress call. The linked crises of nature loss and climate change are pushing wildlife and ecosystems beyond their limits, with dangerous global tipping points threatening to damage Earth’s life-support systems and destabilize societies."
