One Million Corals for Colombia Conservation International 2023-04-18 | In Colombia, scientists and local community volunteers are hacking away at corals with a special saw — all part of a plan to help restore one of the most biodiverse and important ecosystems on the planet. Over half a billion people around the world depend on coral reefs for storm protection, food and income, but scientists estimate that 90 percent all the world’s reefs could die off in the next five years if we don’t slow the pace of planetary warming. One innovative way to restore damaged coral reefs is a technique called micro fragmentation. With the special saw, corals are broken into smaller pieces — which stimulates the coral tissue to grow 40 times faster than they would in the wild — and then placed in shallow underwater nurseries for about 1 to 1.5 years to grow large enough to be transplanted into larger reefs. Launched by the Colombian government, the “One Million Corals for Colombia” project cultivates fragments of coral in an effort to restore 200 hectares (494 acres) of coral reef — the largest effort of its kind in the Americas. The project is led by Conservation International Colombia and Colombia’s Ministry of Environment and Sustainable Development in collaboration with several partners, including local organizations, the national park system and area businesses. To date, more than 430,000 coral fragments are growing in nurseries around Colombia, and over 13,000 have been transplanted to reefs in 12 different areas of the Caribbean and Pacific coasts.
Turning Fish Waste into a Sustainable Solution for Farmers Conservation International 2023-03-16 | Each week, local fisheries in the Galápagos Islands generate approximately 4,500 pounds of fish processing waste, which is subsequently thrown into landfills where it can emit methane and other climate-altering greenhouse gases. To make better use of fish waste and curb its emissions, scientists at Conservation International transformed it into usable products like plant fertilizer — leading to sweeter and juicier vegetables — and protein-rich food for farm animals. Through a new woman-led initiative focused on commercializing fish waste, this effort is creating new jobs in communities that have been hard hit by the COVID-19 pandemic, especially for the mothers and daughters of fishers. Support provided partners the World Bank and the Global Environment Facility

A New Lifeline for the World’s Mangrove Forests? Conservation International 2022-11-10 | A mangrove forest in Cispatá, along Colombia’s Caribbean coast, has become the first to have its carbon stores fully calculated, Conservation International, along with INVEMAR Research Institute, the Omacha Foundation, and Colombia’s environmental authorities CVS and CARSUCRE, announced today. For the last two years, with funding from Apple, Conservation International and the above stakeholders, together with local communities, have been pioneering a new method for integrating the unique way mangrove forests store carbon - both above water and below it, in their soil – into the international carbon market.

The Exponential Roadmap for Natural Climate Solutions Conservation International 2022-09-21 | New research released today finds that to avoid catastrophic climate change, the land sector – including agriculture, forestry and natural land protection and restoration – must reach net zero emissions by 2030. The research is part of a new report, “The Exponential Roadmap for Natural Climate Solutions,” released by Conservation International and partners Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research, WWF, and the Exponential Roadmap Initiative and that lays out a new benchmark: the “Carbon Law for Nature.” Rooted in the latest climate science, this benchmark states that everyone with a land sector footprint – particularly companies, banks and governments – must reach net zero emissions by 2030 and collectively achieve a 10 gigaton (Gt) carbon sink by 2050 across that footprint.
