Human-caused methane emissions are responsible for roughly one-third of the planet’s current warming. Reducing these emissions is the fastest, most cost-effective way to slow global warming in the near-term—and is essential to averting critical climate damages.

To feed the world’s growing population and meet global environmental and sustainability goals, the world’s food systems must be transformed.

Waste Pollution 101 - A primer on how unsustainable production and consumption habits have escalated the waste pollution crisis.

The world is witnessing a disturbing acceleration in the number, speed and scale of broken climate records. At the time of writing, 86 days have been recorded with temperatures exceeding 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels this year.

Join us for a deep dive into how humanity can safeguard and restore underwater habitats - kelp forests, mangroves, seagrass meadows and coral reefs.

The UN Decade on Ecosystem Restoration has identified 10 first flagship initiatives that illustrate the breadth and promise of restoration work already underway. Together, the 10 flagships aim to restore more than 60 million hectares − an area roughly equal to the whole of Madagascar or Ukraine − and create more than 13 million jobs.

The fashion sector is not on track to meet its sustainability targets, nor contribute to the global intention of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), the Paris Agreement on climate change or the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework (GBF). Its basis in unsustainable patterns of consumption and production is contributing directly and significantly to the triple planetary crisis of climate change, nature and biodiversity loss, and pollution and waste (UNEP 2021c; UNEP 2023).
