28 ideas para vivir de forma más sostenible en el planeta
Todos podemos reducir nuestro impacto en el mundo y por eso te proponemos ideas para llevar una vida más sostenible. Por Lauren Jarvis.
de dos tercios en menos de medio siglo
La pandemia de COVID-19 es una de las señales más evidentes de que debemos cambiar cómo tratamos a las criaturas con las que compartimos el planeta. Las poblaciones mundiales de mamíferos, aves, anfibios, reptiles y peces han sufrido un descenso medio <anchor>de dos tercios en menos de medio siglo</anchor>. Nuestros destinos están entrelazados, así que nunca ha habido un momento más importante para defender a aquellos que no tienen voz. Crea y firma peticiones, protesta de forma pacífica, apoya las campañas de justicia para la naturaleza, sigue a defensores de la fauna y la flora silvestres en redes sociales e insta a las personas de tu entorno a que hagan lo mismo.

# LIVING PLANET REPORT 2022

## Wildlife populations plummet by 69%

The Living Planet Report 2022 is a comprehensive study of trends in global biodiversity and the health of the planet. This flagship WWF publication reveals an average decline of 69% in species populations since 1970. While conservation efforts are helping, urgent action is required if we are to reverse nature loss.

## ​Interlinked emergencies: Climate change and biodiversity loss

The evidence is unequivocal—we are living through the dual crises of biodiversity loss and climate change driven by the unsustainable use of our planet’s resources. Scientists are clear: unless we stop treating these emergencies as two separate issues neither problem will be addressed effectively.

## Our broken relationship with nature

Climate change and biodiversity loss are not only environmental issues, but economic, development, security, social, moral, and ethical issues too. Industrialized countries are responsible for most environmental degradation but it is developing nations that are disproportionately impacted by biodiversity loss. We all have a role to play in building a nature-positive society that safeguards the planet for the good health of everyone.

## Tracking the health of nature over 50 years

The Living Planet Index (LPI)—which tracks populations of mammals, birds, fish, reptiles, and amphibians—reveals an average 69% decrease in monitored wildlife populations since 1970. The 2022 LPI analyzed almost 32,000 species populations. It provides the most comprehensive measure of how they are responding to pressures in their environment.

## The world is waking up to the fact that our future depends on reversing the loss of nature just as much as it depends on addressing climate change. And you can’t solve one without solving the other. Everyone has a role to play in reversing these trends, from individuals to companies to governments.  Carter Roberts, President and CEO of WWF-US

## Freshwater populations hit the hardest

Monitored freshwater populations have declined by an average of 83% since 1970, more than any other species groups. Habitat loss and barriers to migration routes account for around half the threats to these populations.
