This year’s Conservation Action Focus
Recently, world leaders committed to protecting 30% of our lands, waters, and ocean by 2030, also known as “30×30.” To ensure our nations’ leaders follow through on this promise, there will need to be a strong show of support!
By supporting 30×30, we can protect our planet’s life support systems – our ocean, climate, and biodiversity. With your help, and the efforts of thousands of other organizations worldwide, we will help grow the global movement by spreading awareness and gathering public support.
