A flourishing life on land is the foundation for our life on this planet. We are all part of the planet’s ecosystem and we have caused severe damage to it through deforestation, loss of natural habitats and land degradation. Promoting a sustainable use of our ecosystems and preserving biodiversity is not a cause. It is the key to our own survival.
Things to do
- Find a Goal 15 charity you want to support. Any donation, big or small, can make a difference!
- Reduce your use of paper. Avoid printing and substitute it with electronic devices or carriers.
- Don’t shop for pets! Visit your local animal shelter and adopt an animal there.
- Don’t buy products tested on animals: Check the labels on the products you buy.
- Recycle paper, glass, plastic, metal and old electronics.
- Compost. Composting food scraps can reduce climate impact while also recycling nutrients.
- Clean your local parks and forests. Organize your own or join an existing clean-up event to sustain the ecosystem of your local green space.
- Don’t use pesticides. To protect and sustain the quality of soil, don’t use chemicals while growing plants.
- Volunteer with street animal organizations or shelters: Help to sustain diversity and save lives of animal species by volunteering in organizations helping these pets as well as endangered species.
