It felt like Christmas came a week early this year. To start with, Argentina won the World Cup. It was an epic game, and as a long time Messi fan I felt simply luminous in the following days. After the game, I opened the news to find that the January 6th commission was recommending criminal charges be brought against Trump for his leadership in the insurrection. Color me pink. Either of these would have been enough to make my Christmas complete, but the best was yet to come. On December 19th, almost 200 parties signed a new, far reaching, far sighted, conservation agreement. The headline target of this agreement, called the Global Biodiversity Framework, is a commitment to protect 30% of the planet for wildlife by 2030. 30 by 30, or 30x30, it’s been nicknamed.
Lots of great information here. Thanks for helping me understand.
