Intervention Area 1: Biodiversity Protection & Restoration

Ecosystem restoration initiatives are essential for re-establishing nature’s carbon sequestration capacity. By revitalising ecosystems through, for example, rewilding initiatives, ecosystems regain their balance, enabling them to capture and store carbon more effectively. For instance, a 2023 Nature Climate Change paper showed that rewilding efforts focused on restoring populations of nine key wildlife species could capture … Read more

As integral wild animals are to biodiversity, so too are the habitats they call home. Ensuring the conservation and protection of these habitats is central to our battle against climate change and the biodiversity crisis. By preserving wild habitats, we not only guarantee a space for wildlife to thrive but also safeguard crucial ecological services … Read more

Habitats need their full range of animals participating in ecological functions to work properly as a habitat and ecosystem service provider. An important service is carbon sequestration, which is dependent on wildlife’s role in maintaining balanced ecosystems. Protection of wild animals is therefore not only crucial for biodiversity but also vital for mitigating climate change … Read more
