As COP15 opens, Canada pledges down payment for international finance for biodiversity

“Children and youth are the future stewards of the planet and we urgently need to conserve, restore and safeguard the environment for them. The ChariTree Foundation welcomes Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s announcement today of $350 million in new international finance for biodiversity,” said Andrea Koehle Jones, Founder & Children’s Biodiversity Education Advocate, The ChariTree Foundation. “Leaders at COP15 must act now to save nature. If we don’t, kids will have fewer and fewer opportunities to fall in love with nature and that would be a critical loss because you protect what you love.”
