Climate Action and Biodiversity
Biodiversity and Climate Change have many connections:
Biodiversity and wildlife are under threat from climate change.
Biodiversity and wildlife are a solution for climate mitigation, adaptation and resilience. They also provide key ecosystem services which are the foundation for overall human well-being.
Nature Based Solutions are becoming a more prominent part of the climate discussion.
Changing attitudes, behavior and systems around climate should also be linked to protecting wildlife and biodiversity.
We want to make biodiversity and wildlife connections within the exicting and important climate movements taking place, especially amongst youth!
Nature Based Solutions and Biodiversity

Drawdown Wild
Drawdown is a movement to reverse climate change based on 100 proven solutions. Every year there is an Eco-Challenge to encourage individuals to take action. We have mapped the Drawdown Solutions and Eco-Challenge Actions to Wildlife and Biodiversity so you can make a bigger difference for climate and for all the living things on this planet.
