Why is The Nature Conservancy involved?

Climate change is greatest threat to nature.  We all rely on nature for survival and now nature is relying on us. As one of world’s largest environmental organizations, we are compelled to work on the world’s largest environmental challenge. A strong, comprehensive international climate change agreement is the most powerful way we can reduce the impacts of climate change on people, plants and animals.

For more than a decade, the Conservancy has been confronting the nexus between climate change and nature, putting into practice — in six countries, on over 1.5 million acres — nature-based strategies to both reduce emissions and adapt to an already changing world.
