More than half of people around the world live in cities. Because the wild is often missing, cities can feel crowded and hot. This Earth Day serves as a reminder that when communities plant trees and grow green walls, we improve the quality of the air we breathe, and can help cool our cities. @rewild supports @groundwork_hv as a part of the Conservation Pathways For Youth program fund. When we nurture native plants and let our outdoor spaces thrive like @sugiproject does by planting pocket forests in urban spaces around the globe, our cities can get a little bit more wild. #EarthDay2024

Local communities celebrate the creation of a new protected area in the Colombian Chocó. Although the project aimed originally to protect over 12,000 acres, the outpour of local support increased the Central Rainforest Las Siete Sabias to over 75,000 acres of protected rainforest ecosystem.This newly designated natural and cultural jewel is located in the collective territory of Afro-Colombian communities, providing vital resources like clean drinking water to over 100,000 individuals.Las Siete Sabias boasts some of the highest biodiversity on the planet and protects 90 species of plants and over 470 species of animals. The forest canopy can tower over 100 feet, creating multiple layers of habitat for these species to thrive.The declaration of the DRMI Central Rain Forest Las Siete Sabias- Esperanza de Vida was made possible thanks to the coordination of @codechococar as the environmental authority, the implementation of CORPARIEN and COCOMACIA, the technical support of the @instituto_humboldt and the financial support of @naturecultureinternational, @andesamazonfund, and Art into Acres in partnership with @rewild.Since 2019, the painting “Japanese Garden 3” by Los Angeles-based artist Jonas Wood supported the creation of this new protected area, and three other sites. Thank you to artists @jonasbrwood and @kusakashio for their key support in biodiversity conservation. #ArtIntoAcresPhoto/video credit: @naturalezaculturainternacional
