50% by 2050

Why 2020?

We can stop the sixth mass extinction if we protect approximately 50% of the 846 ecoregions that provide habitat for all of Earth's biodiversity. That means finding leaders and organizations around the world willing to align exisiting efforts around protecting and interconnecting nature in the region.

As a community of leadership Bioneers has shown that the solutions are largely present, or we know what directions to head in.

We act as a seed head for the game-changing social and scientific vision, knowledge and practices advancing this great transformation.

We do so through our acclaimed annual national conference, award-winning media, public education, local Bioneers events and initiatives, and our dynamic programs.
