WORLD LEADERS: PROTECT HALF OF OUR PLANET
WORLD LEADERS: PROTECT HALF OF OUR PLANET
Sign the petition

To world leaders:

We global citizens are deeply concerned by scientists warning that ecosystems critical to sustaining life on Earth could collapse in our lifetimes. We call on you to meet existing targets to protect biodiversity, forge a new agreement so that at least 50% of our lands and oceans are conserved, protected and restored, and ensure our planet is completely sustainably managed. This must take into consideration the needs of human development, and have the active support and leadership of indigenous peoples. This long-term goal for nature can restore harmony with our home.

More about the campaign:

Up to one million species could be gone from our planet, many within decades. Life is being extinguished as fast as when the dinosaurs disappeared -- and it’s happening because humanity is taking a chainsaw to the tree of life.

Unless we stop this tragedy, the Earth’s delicate biodiversity could completely collapse, leaving our planet deathly silent and uninhabitable for humans. But there’s hope - top scientists are backing an ambitious plan to put half our planet under protection and restore harmony with our home.

Governments are meeting soon to discuss how we address the crisis. If we bring a resounding chorus of human voices behind the 50% plan, we can push governments to stop the next mass extinction.
