AGP Executive Report
Last update: 2 hours agoMarine Pollution: Satellite monitoring recorded 27 oil slicks covering 880 square kilometres in the waters of Conkouati-Douli National Park, the worst pollution reported in any marine protected area in the analysis. The slicks likely came from offshore platforms outside the park, threatening habitat for turtles, dolphins, whales and other wildlife. Congo Basin Forests: Forest loss in the basin reached about 2.4 million hectares in 2025, nearly matching losses in tropical Latin America even as global deforestation fell 15%. Agriculture, logging and mining remain key pressures. Biodiversity Funding: Ahead of COP17, which opens in Armenia on Oct. 19, countries are falling short of funding pledges to protect nature; fewer than half of global biodiversity targets are on track. Green Enterprise: The EU has opened a competition for young Congolese entrepreneurs, with support for projects in sustainable agriculture, renewable energy and environmental management.
