HECO plans to ensure the conservation and long-term financing of nearly 30 million hectares of protected landscapes and seascapes, equivalent to 14% of the Colombian territory.
The GEF, the world’s largest funder of protected areas, was an early investor in the initiative.
Last month, the #GEFCouncil62 approved a $25 million grant to the Enduring Earth partnership to support Colombia’s leadership in protecting 30% of its ocean area and landmass by 2030.

As Her Deepness @SylviaEarle says, “no blue 💙, no green 💚”, ‘cuz what happens in & to the #ocean affects the whole world since the ocean absorbs:

🔥 90% of the 🌏 extra heat since the 50s
🫧 1/4 of the CO2 from human emissions

And what happens in the 💚 also affects deeply the 💙

Our postdoc @ezteliz research focuses on the links between terrestrial and #marine systems, and how river discharges have a great impact on coastal areas, specially #plankton communities.
