-60%
Global connection to nature decline
According to research human connection to nature has declined by more than 60% over the last 200 years. And by tracking language, urbanisation and biodiversity, we are currently at a loss. A phenomenon scientists call the “extinction of experience.”
70%
Of time spent indoors
In Aotearoa, people spend nearly 70% of their day indoors, around 16 hours a day. Which means much of everyday life happens inside buildings rather than with and alongside nature.
4,000
Indigenous species at risk
That means thousands of taonga species may not be here for our mokopuna (grandchildren) to know. Extinction is not loud. It happens quietly, one habitat, one stream, one forest at a time. What we choose individually, decides our collective impact on our planet.
How we all work matters, you matter. People and nature need us to listen.
