This pack present findings and key takeaways from the largest dataset yet from the Living Planet Index, and the most comprehensive analysis of the global state of nature from a wide array of voices and perspectives. The findings are stark. While we need to urgently act to restore the health of the natural world, there is no sign that the loss of nature is being halted, let alone reversed.

The declining trend i in vertebrate populations continues, despite an array of political and private sector commitments. Data gathered from almost 32,000 populations of 5,230 species across the planet leaves no doubt that the UN Decade on Biodiversity, meant to implement broad-based action to transform society’s relationship with nature, has fallen far short of what is needed. By communicating these stark and undeniable facts with the world, we stand a better chance at turning things around.
