联合国粮食及农业组织（粮农组织）发布最新报告指出，全球遏止红树林消失的努力取得了一定成效。红树林分布在世界123个国家的海岸线上。据估计，过去40年间，因人类活动和自然萎缩，全球超过20%的红树林已经消失。今天是保护红树林生态系统国际日，《2000-2020年世界红树林状况》报告指出，2020年全球红树林总面积为1480万公顷。

全球环境基金于6月26日在巴西利亚举行基金理事会第六十四届会议，批准由联合国粮食及农业组织（粮农组织）牵头的26个项目，着眼粮食和纤维生产方式，再接再厉应对环境问题。 粮农组织副总干事玛丽亚·海伦娜·赛梅朵对这些项目获批表示欢迎并指出：“为了实现《2030年议程》，我们需要健康的地球和健康的人民。这些项目将帮助各国可持续地保护和利用自然资源，同时提供营养膳食以及绿色和能够抵御气候变化的生计，同时促进实施《昆明—蒙特利尔全球生物多样性框架》和 《巴黎协定》。”

粮农组织总干事屈冬玉表示，全球生物多样性丧失速度令人担忧，严重危及粮食安全和营养，动摇脱贫成果，为防范自然灾害、减缓和适应气候变化带来更多挑战。

我们需要关注塑料。在生活中的许多领域，塑料制品已成为一种便捷工具，农业也不例外。塑料用途广泛，从育苗用的托盘、灌溉管道到农药包装箱和牲畜饲料袋，随处可见。然而，塑扩散导致了日益严峻的环境问题，威胁着土壤健康、水质和人类福祉。

Biodiversity is the basis of life on Earth. We live biodiversity, we eat biodiversity and we are biodiversity. Without it, our world would be lifeless. The Earth's diverse ecosystems provide us with essential services, from clean air and water to food and medicine. In today's rapidly changing world, one of the most pressing challenges we face is the alarming loss of biodiversity.

The African Union Commission through its Directorate of Sustainable Environment and Blue Economy (SEBE) will organize the Africa, Caribbean and Pacific High Level Conference on the implementation of the Outcomes of the Fifteenth Conference of the Parties (CoP15) to the United Nations Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) and the Nineteenth Conference of the Parties (CoP19) to the Convention on the International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES).

自2018年以来，联合国粮农组织已在12个国家新增认定24个全球重要农业文化遗产系统遗产地。新认定遗产地不仅呈现了壮丽的自然景观，还实践着优良...

Amidst the vast expanse of Mongolia's high altitude Great Plateau, a remarkable story unfolds - one of endurance, adaptation, and unwavering resilience. The nation's unique livestock breeds are a symbol of pride and a vital backbone of the country's economy. Today, on this International Day for Biological Diversity, we celebrate not only Mongolia’s livestock diversity, but also the herders that have developed and maintained them for thousands of years.

Biodiversity includes organisms that can help farmers grow crops successfully, such as bees and birds that pollinate crops,  earthworms that keep soils healthy and microorganisms that are capable of acting as biological control agents. The indiscriminate and inappropriate use of pe...

The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), with support from the European Union (EU), moved a collection of unique genetic samples from Kharkiv in the east of Ukraine to a safe location in the west of the country. At a time when the world is facing an unprecedented loss of agricultural biodiversity in farmers’ fields, it is more important than ever to ensure that crop diversity is safeguarded, including the diversity that is held in genebanks.

Brussels, Geneva and New York – The rethinking of food and agriculture and the necessary sector transformations we need moving forward must take into consideration the implementation of the closely interlinked climate change and biodiversity outcomes from COP27 and COP15, respe...

The high seas comprise nearly two-thirds of the world's ocean and are filled with a variety of fish species, which are essential for the ocean's biodiversity. They are part of flourishing ecosystems that regulate our climate, provide vital habitats for hundreds of thousands of species and support crucial fisheries.

But high seas ecosystems are facing new challenges: climate change, pollution, and unsustainable practices are threatening their fragile balance. Rising water temperatures are forcing many species to find new habitats, while unsustainable practices, such as overfishing, are impacting fish stocks and biodiversity.

"I have a duty to protect the forest, as it feeds me and my family," says Thomas.

The Ituri Forest, which Thomas Aseli speaks about with emotion, is located in the northeast of the Democratic Republic of the Congo and is a sacred place for the Mbuti Indigenous People. Within this spectacular rainforest is the Okapi Wildlife Reserve. It occupies about one-fifth of the forest and houses some of the richest wildlife in central Africa, including a large population of the reserve’s iconic okapi, also known as a forest giraffe. It is also home to more than 100 species of mammals, including several endangered species such as the forest elephant and the eastern chimpanzee.
