Taking place against a backdrop of geopolitical conflicts, energy security concerns and global instability, COP29 in Baku, Azerbaijan is a pivotal milestone in the fight against climate change.

 

Our fixed priority is delivering deep, rapid and sustained emission reductions now to keep temperatures under control and stay below 1.5°C, while leaving no one behind. But to achieve this we must focus on the need to invest today to save tomorrow.

 

In this context, LIVING LAKES NETWORK is calling for urgent action to prioritize wetlands restoration as a strategic climate solution, emphasizing the dual benefits of emissions reduction and Biodiversity conservation.
