Natural Heritage

10TH December – #WorldHumanRightsDay and #InternationalAnimalRightsDay Human and animal rights gain new meaning when they become a reality in the daily life of every single person in the world. By protecting human and animal rights, we protect our future!

2nd #InstitutionalDialogue united experts, policymakers, and projects to shape marine & coastal #restoration in the #Mediterranean. Key highlights included inspiring discussions on the #EUNatureRestorationLaw. 🎥Day 1: bit.ly/3ZjkcRc 🎥Day 2: bit.ly/3ViQgDG

Despite this, their state of conservation is not always the best. That’s why some projects such as Carbon 4 Soil Quality focus on their #restoration. How do they do it? Through carbon #farming🌱✨

33% of soils are degraded. Up to 58% more food could be produced through sustainable soil management. 🌍 🌱 Celebrating World Soil Day 2024: Caring for Soils, Securing Our Future. #worldsoilday #worldsoilday2024 #naturalheritagemission #Mediterranean #SoilHealth #ClimateAction

On Jan 13, 2012,the Costa Concordia tragedy claimed 32 lives and damaged marine ecosystems near Giglio Island. Restoration efforts include replanting #Posidonia oceanica & transplanting gorgonians to revive the seabed.#EnvironmentalRestoration #Solvethechallenge2024 @ISPRA_Press

Summer 2023: Dadia National Park suffers Europe's largest #wildfire (according to Copernicus). Summer 2024: The Park is trying to self-recover but has also an ally, the National Environmental and #ClimateChange Agency (NECCA) youtu.be/gBK931uumok

@CREAF_ecologia Floods like these show us that climate change isn't a distant threat—it's here now, affecting lives and ecosystems. It’s urgent to act, look for nature-based solutions, not only to protect the environment but also communities. #ClimateCrisis

These days we are shocked by the #floods caused by a cut-off low in #Valencia (#DANA in Spanish). This meteorological phenomenon is common in the Mediterranean, but now it's becoming much more virulent and recurrent due to #climatechange. More info 👉🏼 creaf.cat/en/articles/ho…

📣 Join us on Nov 7 at 16.30h in Room 2 for the @medforestweek to explore @StrategyMedFor preliminary outcomes. Play a crucial role in the #sustainable #management of #mediterranean #forest , and engage with fellow professionals! #savethemed #Biodiversity #climateaction #NewTech

We present the Deba #RiverRestoration case study, a example demonstrating that nature restoration is achievable & that in EU, efforts are already well underway. This case study is part of the MERLIN project, funded by @EU_Commission ’s Horizon 2020 bit.ly/3CpqYgf

In 2017, a project began on Larnaka's beaches to restore sand dunes & protect species like the fringe-toed lizard. Despite community resistance, the dunes are recovering! In 2024,sea daffodils bloomed & a turtle nest was spotted—nature’s resilience at work! #solvethechallenge2024
