This day seeks to raise awareness of rewilding and our need for it. Wild nature is our largest carbon storage facility. Restoring nature’s food web can magnify carbon uptake by 1.2 to 12.5 times. Wild nature is our best ally in the fight to stabilize climate.
The number one driver of mass extinction is the loss of wildlands and seas. Restoring wild nature expands the habitat of thousands of species and helps restore balance and harmony to the world.
In our landscapes, we must help to bring back wilder nature and wildlife, and to support the development of local nature-based economies. This can be achieved through a bottom-up approach, working together with local people, communities, entrepreneurs and authorities.
