JUST IN! 24 hours ahead of #IUCNCongress, our hard-hitting ad in the @FT calls on President @EmmanuelMacron to support the goal to conserve at least half the planet. Will he listen to the science, Indigenous people and marginalized communities and vote for #Motion101ForHalf?

27th APRIL shall be my fiftieth wedding anniversary. About a year after marriage I bragged to my wife, "I am a good man. I have given you a lot of freedom." Her simple answer was, "Tell me where men get their freedom to give to women so that I can go there and get it myself."
