A cluster of water hyacinth plants with vibrant green, glossy leaves and delicate lavender flowers. The flowers have yellow and violet markings, standing out against the lush foliage in a natural setting.
Invasive alien species, like the water hyacinth, are the sole driver in 16% of documented global animal and plant extinctions.
Their impacts on biodiversity and ecosystems are widespread and lasting.

An underwater scene with a dark blue ocean background, featuring digitally drawn neon-like outlines of marine life, including seahorses, fish, coral, and a sea turtle. Green seagrass is illustrated growing on the ocean floor. White bold text in the center reads: βLETβS RESTORE SEAGRASS BEDS.β Below, smaller white text says: βJoin #GenerationRestoration.β Logos for the United Nations Decade on Ecosystem Restoration, UN Environment Programme, and the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations are displayed at the bottom.
Seagrass covers just 0.1% of the ocean floor but stores up to 18% of oceanic carbon, prevents erosion & supports food security.
Yet, almost 30% has been lost since the late 19th century.
This #WorldSeagrassDay, join #GenerationRestoration to protect these precious ecosystems: bit.ly/3fNtmjj
