It has shown that we must urgently reset our relationship with nature. That’s why today I’m joining @europeaid and @global_wildlife_conservation to launch two important new initiatives. The first, called Rapid RESCUE, will provide a rapid response to emerging threats to biodiversity, ecosystems critical to the planet’s health, protected areas, and surrounding vulnerable communities. These threats could include those caused by the current pandemic, fires, hurricanes, species extinction, and other future emergencies. The second will support the Democratic Republic of the Congo’s @virunganationalpark, the most biodiverse protected area on the African continent. The European Union is leading the way in supporting nature-based solutions to address the climate and wildlife extinction crises. I am honored to work with the EU, Commissioner @JuttaUrpilainen, and GWC to establish these funds to carry out urgent conservation actions around the world. For the benefit of all life on Earth, it’s our duty to protect precious ecosystems to let wildlife and wild places flourish.」12月17日 2時15分
