In lovely #Azerbaijan -upcoming host for COP29 Azerbaijan. Great visit to Khilli Sturgeon Fish Hatchery. Important conservation here: Honored to release into river batch of 1-year old critically endangered sturgeon. Today eggs are harvested by injection, so fish live on to tell the tale
Loved the children’s exhibit at Shirvan National Park. The header for the exhibit was “Climate Action”. As they say, a picture speaks a thousand words. Well done! Kids tell us. Now it is for us to act. COP29 Azerbaijan
At the Khilli Sturgeon Fish Hatchery, with Inger Andersen, sturgeons are released into the Kura river – a practice which exemplifies the #Azerbaijan and #COP29 commitment to environmental protection and returning sturgeon to their natural habitat. #UNEP #ClimateAction
Ahead of #COP29, #Azerbaijan was very pleased to host Inger Andersen and the UN Environment Programme team to share environmental practices at the Khilli Sturgeon Fish Hatchery, the natural biodiversity of Shirvan National Park, and meet with youth and NGOs on tackling #climatechange
