 Warmest greetings to all. I'm Xiao Ting from IED. It has been a great pleasure working with so many amazing partners to bring nature into the DNC Day discussions. A thriving natural environment is fundamental for human resilience. For example, these help pollinate crops. Trees on farm help improve water and nutrient retention. Birds help control pests and earthworms help improve the fertility of soil. All these are essential ecosystem services provided by nature for resilient agriculture systems. Green roofs and gardens in cities and forested areas around urban watersheds can provide cooling relief for everwarming cities. They can also provide more reliable food sources and clean water supplies. Forests on mountain slopes can reduce damage caused by avalanches and the risk of landslides. And mangroves can protect communities from storm surges, help reduce the risk of natural disasters. In addition to helping us adapt to climate change, nature can also help capture carbon and bring development benefits. For the poor and the most vulnerable communities, working with nature is often the most cost-effective and sometimes the only affordable way to adapt to climate change. But biodiversity continue to decline at an alarming rate in every region of the world. We urgently need to channel more funds and create more incentives for nature-based approach and support vulnerable communities who are heavily dependent on natural resources. Working with nature to build resilience is interlinked with all the other themes at DNC days and touch upon every topic you will be discussing today. Your discussion on this theme are also very timely, as more and more governments and companies, including many at this COP, are recognizing the importance of finding integrated solutions to the interlinked crisis of climate change and biodiversity loss. We hope everyone at DNC days can take this excellent opportunity to share experiences of working with nature, including best practices and lessons learned. We hope the discussions today can inspire future collaborations to scale up nature-based solutions for a shared more resilient future. Lastly, I'm very sorry that I won't be able to attend in person, but we are very excited that many participants today are local champions of nature-based solutions and can bring their wealth of experience into the discussions. We wish you a fruitful day of interactions and inspirations.
