🌍The #IDB2026 theme, “Acting locally for global impact,” is the very heart of @GEF_SGP.

Over 23 days, they've shown how communities are achieving the 23 #KMGBF targets through #LocalAction.

RT @antonioguterres: Biodiversity is the living web that sustains humanity.

Yet, climate chaos, pollution & the relentless exploitation of nature, are pushing the natural world towards breakdown.

This #BiodiversityDay, let's work together to halt & reverse biodiversity loss, so people & nature can flourish together.

RT @environmentza: 𝗧𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗸 𝗴𝗹𝗼𝗯𝗮𝗹, 𝗮𝗰𝘁 𝗹𝗼𝗰𝗮𝗹.

Real global change starts right in our own neighborhoods, backyards, and local communities. This #BiodiversityDay, let us focus on how our everyday habits can support South Africa’s incredible efforts to conserve ecosystems and protect our unique wildlife. 🇿🇦

By taking small, intentional steps locally, we are directly contributing to the ambitious goals of the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework. Every choice counts!
