Great to hear @Defra Secretary ⁦Steve Reed⁩ speak at ⁦Natural History Museum⁩ ⁦⁦WWF⁩ event to kick off COP 16 summit in Colombia to protect & restore nature!

Nature is in crisis. This week, Secretary of State Steve Reed set out the UK’s commitment to go further and faster to save it. Thank you to MinAmbiente Colombia, Natural History Museum, and WWF UK for setting the stage for an ambitious #COP16.

I chose the climate and nature crisis as the subject of my first major speech as Foreign Secretary. Here is a summary.

...And over at the Natural History Museum on Monday night, the environment secretary, Steve Reed, stood under the skeleton of a blue whale, declaring: “Nature and climate change are inter-related and integral to security and economic stability.” #COP16 theguardian.com/environment/20…

Today is the day the UK becomes the first G7 country to completely phase out coal power Since opening "Jumbo", the world's first coal power plant in 1882, the UK's coal plants have burned through a whopping 4.6bn tonnes of coal, emitting 10.4GtCO2 – which is more than most

Last week I met key environmental NGOs to share perspectives ahead of CBD COP16 in Cali, Colombia. We agreed that we needed to build on the momentum from the last COP by showing our collective determination to halt and reverse nature loss at home and abroad.

Delighted to share Natural History Museum policy brief on #30by30 ahead of #COP16! Brand new analysis shows that protected areas aren't doing enough for the most critical ecosystem services. If we want 30by30 to work for nature and people, we need a rethink. nhm.ac.uk/our-science/se…

🚨Job alert!🚨Brilliant Partnerships & Programme Producer role going at Natural History Museum, working with the equally brilliant Camilla Tham. Salary £32,732, closes 31 October #FixingOurBrokenPlanet jobs.nhm.ac.uk/Job/JobDetail?…

Great to see this coverage of Natural History Museum's new #30by30 policy brief. “We urgently need to move beyond the current approach of simply designating more protected areas to 30x30... this will not automatically result in better outcomes for biodiversity and ecosystems.” #COP16

Great to see the UK's nature champions out in force. Hope the Natural History Museum team will cross paths with many of you over the coming days...

Fantastic to see winning images from Natural History Museum’s Wildlife Photographer of the Year on display at Monad Foundation⨀ in Cali! Huge thanks to Embajador Británico - George Hodgson plus numerous museum and embassy colleagues for making it happen during #COP16

As week two of #COP16 kicks off in Cali, here’s a reminder of Natural History Museum’s #30by30 work and wider COP programme: nhm.ac.uk/press-office/p… Do stop by blue zone booth 21 to find out more about us and our partnership with KewGardens and ZSL as the UK Biodiversity Alliance

"Those profiting from nature cannot use it as a free infinite resource, they must step up.” António Guterres at #COP16Colombia demands action on Digital Sequence Information (DSI). It's time for an agreement at COP16 that ensures profits from nature contribute to its restoration

V interesting to read that “the majority of areas important for ecosystem functions and services… are unprotected” - reinforces key conclusion in Natural History Museum’s new #30by30 policy brief nhm.ac.uk/our-science/se… #COP16

For those attending the HAC for Nature and People #30x30 Action Day at #COP16, check out Natural History Museum’s new analysis on how well protected areas are doing for nature and people, and how we can rethink the delivery of 30by30, globally and nationally nhm.ac.uk/our-science/se…

We’re kickstarting new international efforts to protect and restore nature. Today Steve Reed MP sets out the path to protect 30% of land by 2030. Supercharging nature protection at home and abroad is a key part of the Government’s mission. #COP16 More: gov.uk/government/new…

🌎🦥Where are we at with linking climate change and biodiversity loss? #COP16 biodiversity summit ended a week before #COP29 climate summit, although you'd be forgiven for forgetting that as it's barely been mentioned here in Baku But there are some updates worth noting...

Calling #COP29 goers! Come along to the UK Pavilion tomorrow (Wed) 11.45am to hear from UK leaders & international experts about joined up solutions for nature, climate & people, feat. an opening address from Mary Creagh CBE MP, UK Minister for Nature. youtube.com/@UKCOPPavilion 🌿🐋🌍

"Meeting this interconnected crisis requires action from all of us!" This morning, UK Minister for Nature Mary Creagh CBE MP spoke at an event we co-organised with Natural History Museum and KewGardens in the UK Pavillion at #COP29Azerbaijan exploring how we de-silo climate and biodiversity
