🌀 Update from Union Island: following destruction from Hurricane Beryl, the earliest category 5 hurricane to ever develop in the Atlantic Ocean, more than 90% of homes were severely damaged or destroyed! 

The Union Island Environmental Alliance 🏝 a local partner of Re:wild and faunafloraint, has lost everything. Their staff and volunteers have lost their homes, office headquarters, and all the equipment they need to conduct their conservation work. Right now they are in urgent need of essential supplies, including water, canned food, sanitary pads, generators, and tents. 

➡️ Join us in helping our Caribbean partners recover and rebuild from the devastating impact of Hurricane Beryl —link in bio.

The Caribbean harbors over 10,000 species 🦎 found exclusively in the region and is a global biodiversity hotspot. Conservation efforts in this region are crucial to prevent extinctions and increase the resilience of communities to climate change - including increasingly powerful hurricanes like Beryl. #RewildTheCaribbean
