We are experiencing a dangerous decline in nature: One million species are threatened with extinction, soils are turning infertile and water sources are drying up.
But there are glimmers of hope: The Great Green Wall is an ambitious initiative to restore savannas, grasslands and farmlands across Africa to help families and biodiversity cope with climate change and keep desertification from further threatening already-vulnerable communities. Watch how the initiative evolved from a literal wall of trees to a mosaic of economic interventions.
The Great Green Wall for Restoration and Peace has been recognized as a World Restoration Flagship under the UN Decade on Ecosystem Restoration.

These initiatives represent Earth’s frontiers of hope, as countries agreed to a new Global Biodiversity Framework. Under the agreement, countries promise to protect 30% of the planet’s lands and seas, and bringing back 20% from degradation.
