#GenerationRestoration matters because a healthier planet means a healthier home for us all.
From forests and farmlands to cities, wetlands, and oceans, ecosystem restoration helps degraded ecosystems recover while protecting the ones still intact.
This year, we honour seven new World Restoration Flagships for their restoration efforts, with three land-focused initiatives announced during #UNCCDCOP17.
Join #GenerationRestoration.

Global temperature increases are projected to cross 1.5°C within the next few years.
Temperatures beyond 1.5°C will have increased and irreversible risks, including more extreme weather, rising sea levels, loss of ecosystems, threats to food and water security, and impacts on health and infrastructure, and more.
Countries must take immediate action to significantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions, enhance adaptation and resilience, and responsibly invest in solutions that can help lower temperatures.
These actions must be equitable.
Countries with a larger historical responsibility for planet-warming emissions must take the most significant and swiftest actions, while prioritising equity and justice.
Actions taken today will determine whether the overshoot lasts for decades or centuries.

Global warming is set to cross 1.5°C, pushing climate risks and impacts to dangerous new heights, warns a new UNEP report.
The possibility of triggering irreversible changes rises with every additional fraction of a degree, and every year temperatures remain elevated.
Anticipated impacts include intensified extreme weather, ecosystem loss, and uninhabitability of Small Island Developing States and low-lying coastal cities, as well as severe damage to human health, food security, water supplies, nature, cities, infrastructure, and economies.
Action now can still limit how high warming peaks, shorten the duration of the peak, and preserve the possibility of returning below 1.5°C through an ‘overshoot, peak, and decline’ pathway.

What does it take to turn urban wasteland into a thriving wetland?
In Colombia’s Barranquilla, an initiative is restoring a coastal wetland, with new public spaces opening up and opportunities blooming for nature tourism and local businesses.
See how this #GenerationRestoration effort is bringing a degraded wetland back to life - congratulations to @alcaldiabarranquilla !

What’s at stake at the largest climate conference?
The international community is coming together at #COP31 in Antalya, Türkiye, to turn climate commitments into action.
As the world heads towards global warming above 1.5°C, every fraction of a degree matters.

Conflicts don’t just destroy lives. They pollute land, air and water, generate waste and devastate critical ecosystems, with lasting consequences for food and water security, economies and human health.
It’s a vicious cycle. Environmental damage drives resource scarcity and ecosystem degradation, which can in turn fuel further conflict.
Understanding the links between the environment and armed conflict is key to building lasting peace and security.

The climate is changing faster than the world can adapt, and those who contributed the least to it are often the most vulnerable to its impacts.
Even tripling adaptation finance by 2035 would cover less than a third of developing countries’ needs.
The #AdaptationGap is growing. Financing must catch up.

Have you heard of Ethiopia's church forests?
These sacred groves are more than places of worship. They shelter some of the country's last pockets of native forests and show how people and forests can thrive together.
In northern Ethiopia, an initiative is building on this wisdom by restoring soil, capturing rainwater, and protecting fast-disappearing biodiversity to revive one of the most degraded forest landscapes in the Horn of Africa.
It has now been named a World Restoration Flagship under the @unitednations Decade on Ecosystem Restoration. Congratulations to @weforest_org !

Heatwaves, flooded streets, polluted air and vanishing green spaces are part of daily life for many of us in urban areas.
But it does not have to be this way. Nature offers some of the best solutions. When urban planning works with ecosystems rather than against them, residents enjoy a better quality of life and communities become more resilient to the growing impacts of climate change.
From Cape Town in South Africa to Iloilo in the Philippines and Yangzhou in China, 24 cities around the world are already bringing nature back and joining the #GenerationRestoration movement.
This #WorldCitiesDay, swipe to reimagine the cities we call home.

Five years ago, the world made an ambitious promise to restore 1 billion hectares.
The aim was to make ecosystem restoration a key response to the connected crises of biodiversity loss, ecosystem degradation and climate change.
Today, we are at the halfway point of the @unitednations Decade on Ecosystem Restoration, a global movement to prevent, halt, and reverse ecosystem degradation worldwide.
So how are we doing on keeping that commitment?
Swipe to see the key findings from the latest restoration progress report.

Nature can make a comeback.
Again and again, around the world, degraded land has been revived, mangroves replanted, nature welcomed back into cities and forgotten wastelands brought back to life.
At #COP17Armenia, the @unitednations will name five new World Restoration Flagships, recognizing their dedication to restoring ecosystems.

Week two of #COP17Armenia is under way in Yerevan.
As we approach the halfway mark towards the global biodiversity targets, countries are taking stock of progress together for the first time, guided by a shared vision of living in harmony with nature.
The @unbiodiversity talks in Armenia can be the turning point that speeds up action to meet 2030 commitments.
No country can do it alone. This is the moment to protect nature #ForPeopleForPlanet
