As global leaders gather at the UN summit to protect biodiversity, scientists advocate for the conservation of fungi, often overlooked despite their ecological importance. Fungi outweigh all animals combined and are crucial for ecosystems. Giuliana Furci founded the Fungi Foundation to address their exclusion from environmental legislation. The Global Fungal Conservation Network launched a strategy at COP17, emphasizing fungi's role in sustaining plant and animal life. Despite facing threats like habitat loss and climate change, fungi remain largely unprotected. Conservation efforts are underway, with commitments from several countries to include fungi in biodiversity initiatives.
