Species and languages worldwide threatened by the consequences of European colonialism
Around one million species and almost 50 percent of the world's languages are threatened with extinction.
Large-scale land-based carbon dioxide removal strategies, such as afforestation and
#bioenergy crops, pose a direct threat to
#biodiversity hotspots unless precise site selection is enforced to prevent habitat encroachment.

Land-intensive carbon removal needs better siting to protect biodiversity
Atmospheric carbon dioxide removal and storage such as planting forests or bioenergy with carbon capture and storage
