The declared goal of the United Nations is: Protect, restore and promote sustainable use of terrestrial ecosystems, sustainably manage forests, combat desertification, and halt and reverse land degradation and halt biodiversity loss

Specifically, by 2030...
...ensure the conservation, restoration and sustainable use of terrestrial and inland freshwater ecosystems and their services, in particular forests, wetlands, mountains and drylands, in line with obligations under international agreements (by 2020).
...take urgent and significant action to reduce the degradation of natural habitats, halt the loss of biodiversity and, by 2020, protect and prevent the extinction of threatened species.
...mobilize and significantly increase financial resources from all sources to conserve and sustainably use biodiversity and ecosystems.

This is why the university strives to promote biodiversity on campus through its Campus Garten project.
