Happy #Natura2000Day! 🍃🐝Our state & outlook #SOER2020 report stresses the crucial role #biodiversity #nature play in sustaining life & delivering essential ecosystem services. They are also key to our own well-being. So let’s protect our nature! eea.europa.eu/soer/intro

We must fight: Lies & conspiracies with science. Hate speech with solidarity. Despair with hope & solutions. That is why we are launching ‘Verified’ - an initiative to share factual advice on #COVID19 and stories celebrating the best of humanity. shareverified.com

When countries adopted the #SDGs, they also committed to report data. Credible and timely data help decision-makers to identify countries, people and sectors that are left behind, and set priorities for increased efforts and investments. buff.ly/2WtI1VS #2020DataDrive
