Nearly half of global heritage sites now impacted by climate change
The report, which assesses conservation trends over the last decade, shows a worrying decline in the number of sites with a positive conservation outlook. Only 57 percent of sites are now considered to be in good condition, down from 62 percent in 2020. Biodiversity-rich regions have been hit hardest, with many species facing new or worsening threats.
