The science is clear: the biodiversity crisis, the climate crisis and the health crisis are interdependent. Political leaders from across
the world, representing 80+ countries and the European Union, have also recognised this
connection in the Leaders’ Pledge for Nature.1 Climate change accelerates the destruction of
the natural world through extreme weather events such as droughts, flooding and wildfires.

The world’s more than 200 000 protected areas come
in many forms, on land and at sea, and occur in every
country (Bertzky et al. 2012). They are places that people
establish to conserve natural and cultural heritage and
to sustain their benefits for society. Among other values,
protected areas allow people to connect with nature for
their inspiration, education, well-being and recreation.
While protecting ecosystems that are essential for life,
they can support human livelihoods and aspirations

Invasive species, particularly animals, are being eradicated from islands at ever more ambitious scales. In order to protect island biodiversity and the essential ecosystem functions that it provides, however, plant invasions should be given more management attention. While many advances have been made, plant eradication is inherently more difficult than animal eradication due to persistent seed banks, and eradication may not be possible for more extensive populations.

Sustainable tourism involves increasingly attracting visitors while preserving the natural
capital of a destination for future generations. To foster tourism while protecting sensitive environments,
coastal managers, tourism operators, and other decision‐makers benefit from information
about where tourists go and which aspects of the natural and built environment draw them to particular
locations. Yet this information is often lacking at management‐relevant scales and in remote
places. We tested and applied methods using social media as data on tourism in
