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.

How are we achieving HALF?

CBCGDF has joined hands with NNH to realize human well-being by 2050, by protecting half of the planet’s clean air/water, rich life supply, and stable climate that protect human’s most desired power source. After recognizing the catastrophic consequence that humans have had on each other and on the dissimilation of nature to the earth, we call for a concerted effort to achieve the forces of harmonious coexistence that will change human society and respect nature.

We are committed to building an ecological civilization and human destiny community. It also serves as a member of the international community and has joined in with an outstanding team. The network alliance will join hand with groups of fabulous conservationists from more than 20 countries in the world to create new opportunities and defend each other to defend the natural “wilderness” that still exists on Earth. Create a respectful and sustainable relationship between man and nature.
