The Editorial Team SDG15 – Life on Land at Global Society News (GSN) reports on the protection and restoration of terrestrial ecosystems, forests, and biodiversity. The team brings together environmental journalists, ecologists, and policy experts who examine the relationship between human activity and nature, with a focus on sustainable land use, conservation, and ecological recovery.

Sustainable Development Goal 15 (SDG15) – Life on Land, established under the United Nations 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, aims to protect, restore, and promote the sustainable use of terrestrial ecosystems. It seeks to manage forests sustainably, combat desertification, reverse land degradation, and halt biodiversity loss.

Forests, soils, and natural habitats are essential to climate stability, water cycles, food security, and the survival of countless species and communities. Yet deforestation, intensive agriculture, urbanisation, and land degradation continue to place ecosystems under severe pressure. At the same time, reforestation, wildlife conservation, and regenerative farming show that recovery is possible when nature is protected and restored.

The Editorial Team SDG15 at GSN examines these issues through evidence-based journalism and collaboration with conservation organisations, indigenous communities, and environmental scientists. Its reporting highlights land restoration, forest protection, wildlife conservation, nature-based solutions, and sustainable farming practices that strengthen both ecological and social resilience.
