CBCGDF Submitted Two Motions to the 2025 WCC on Species Conservation and Carbon Platform

On January 15, 2025, in order to actively participate in global environmental governance and promote the construction of a community for life on Earth, the China Biodiversity Conservation and Green Development Foundation (CBCGDF) submitted two motions for the 2025 World Conservation Congress (WCC) to the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN): "Appeal for global prevention of propeller-inflicted deaths on endangered species" and "Promoting the establishment of a global carbon credit accreditation and trading platform".

The 2025 World Conservation Congress will be held in Abu Dhabi, the capital of the United Arab Emirates, from October 9th to 15th. The conference is held every four years and is the world's largest international conservation forum that connects governments, ecological conservation organizations and indigenous communities, dedicated to formulating global priorities for nature conservation and climate change for the next decade and beyond.

A motion is a decision-making mechanism for IUCN members to promote actions and plans from various stakeholders, focusing on specific environmental issues. After being reviewed and approved by the motion working group, it will be submitted to global members for discussion, modification, and final voting to determine whether it will be passed into a conference resolution. The conference resolution will influence national and international policies by setting clear goals and actions, and promote global or regional practices to address key environmental issues such as biodiversity loss, climate change, and ecosystem degradation.

Unveiling the Mysteries of Cetaceans in the South China Sea: Chinese Scientists Describe Important Marine Mammal Areas (IMMAs)

Image
The world’s ocean ecosystems are facing mounting threats—climate change, marine pollution, overfishing, and habitat destruction due to human activities, to name a few. These pressures are particularly dangerous for marine mammals like cetaceans, whose survival hinges on healthy habitats and stable populations. Yet, in regions like the South China Sea, where biodiversity is exceptionally high, little research has been done to understand the needs and habitats of cetaceans. This lack of data has left a gap in our knowledge and made it challenging to establish targeted conservation strategies. Recognizing this, Chinese scientists have now set out to fill these gaps and contribute essential data to inform future policy and management, aiming to protect these vulnerable species and support the objectives of the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework (GBF). In a landmark study published on October 8, 2024, in Biological Conservation, Dr. Li Songhai and his team from the Institute of...
