- The organization supports the objectives of restoring nature under the Biodiversity Strategy, and we also support the existence of a legislation defined by the European Union regarding that matter.
- Biodiversity is the foundation that supports all forms of life on earth and underwater, affects every aspect of human health, provides fresh air and water, and without it, life on Earth will not be possible.
- MHR recommends that civil society organizations should be allowed and more open to active participation in these goals, and that should be emphasized in the legislation.
- Loss of biodiversity:
The loss of biodiversity causes the unsustainability of Earth’s safety, so we must reimagine our relationship with nature and put nature at the heart of the policy-making process.

- Biodiversity and the Corona pandemic “Covid-19”:
The emergence of Covid-19 emphasizes the necessity and importance of preserving biodiversity, in order not to destroy the system that supports human life.
- Non-loss of biodiversity helps to ensure that diseases do not spread or dominate quickly as was the status of Coved-19
- The loss of biodiversity provides opportunities for pathogens to move between animals and humans.
- Human actions, such as deforestation, wildlife encroachment, agriculture and the acceleration of climate change, have disrupted the delicate balance of nature.
- We must not change the natural order — which would protect us naturally, and not create conditions that allow the spread of pathogens — including viruses.
- The legislation and laws necessary to achieve these objectives alone are not enough, and therefore must be accompanied by a community awareness campaign that helps to achieve strategies and make them a reality.
