I had the pleasure of announcing this important work at a pre conference at #COP17Armenia alongside my colleagues & partners from @IUCNRedList of #Ecosystems
NEWS: Virtually every assessed shallow-water coral reef ecosystem is threatened, with 96% Critically Endangered.
Launched at #COP17Armenia, this is the first global coral reefs assessment under the Red List of Ecosystems.

JUST IN: Google forced to halt work in Finland after illegally clearing 250,000 trees for a new data center, according to the Guardian.
Every tree that occupied the 815-acre site just a few months ago is now gone.
The Finnish Licensing and Supervision Authority (LVV) has ordered Google to stop work on the Muhos and Otanmäki sites after it cut down the trees before the environmental impact assessment was completed.
Google’s Finland manager, Antti Järvinen, has apologized but says they were acting on "the best understanding we had of the legislation at the time."
Muhos and Otanmäki are a $17 billion Google AI project.
President Trump has criticized Google for taking the projects overseas instead of investing in the United States.

“Largest heat wave of 1960s reached 6% of planet & lasted 46 days. Largest heat wave this decade swept >85% of the globe during 367-days. Reuters calls massive heat waves that cover at least 1% of the planet, “heat storms,” & they have expanded dramatically in number & size.”

BREAKING: 96% of coral reef ecosystems found to be Critically Endangered, according to a new assessment from @IUCN.
But things are not without hope. Most of these corals are still alive, and we can still avert disaster if urgent action is taken. bit.ly/4yB1sfA

Heat stress from climate change is the single most consistent threat, but reefs in most parts of the world are not yet lost.

At #COP17Armenia, countries must turn the first global review of the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework into stronger action for nature.
That means closing implementation gaps, strengthening finance, involving all stakeholders, and improving collaboration across global agreements.

BREAKING NEWS: Nearly all assessed shallow-water coral reef ecosystems face a high risk of collapse within 50 years, with 96% Critically Endangered.

Ecological integrity can tell us how well a natural place is still working, and if it can recover from the shocks coming its way.
A new report from IUCN explains how to put ecological integrity into conservation policy and practice.

I met with Prime Minister of Denmark Mette Frederiksen @Statsmin. We discussed in detail the threats of Russian escalation, particularly against our energy infrastructure. It is clear that Russia has taken signals about easing sanctions as a green light to continue waging war against residential buildings, substations, and any other infrastructure that sustains normal life.
Right now, it is critically important for everyone in Europe to mobilize to strengthen protection against this brutal terror ahead of winter. Air defense is the top priority, first and foremost anti-ballistic defense and everything that helps intercept jet-powered “shaheds.”
We also discussed how Denmark can help provide financial support for our resilience. We agreed that our teams will continue working at their level. We appreciate that we can always count on Denmark. Thank you, Mette!

44% of assessed reef-building coral species are threatened with extinction, up from about a third in 2008.
Corals face a faster rise in extinction risk than any other fully assessed group, a new study in @Nature study finds.

Look forward to be part of the @IUCN delegation at #CBDCoP31. Ping me if you want to collaborate and/or discuss further
With just four years left to meet our 2030 biodiversity targets, implementation of the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework must accelerate.
At #COP17Armenia, IUCN will provide science-based input to help turn global commitments into action.

Freddie Mercury facing the Wembley Stadium crowd in London during Queen's set at Live Aid on July 13, 1985.
👑 Queen's 21-minute set started at 6:41 PM London time in front of about 72,000 people, and in a 2005 industry poll of more than 60 artists, journalists and music executives it was voted the greatest live performance in rock history. Do you agree with that poll? 👑 👇️
