World leaders have failed to deliver commitments made in 2002 to reduce the rate of biodiversity loss, and have instead overseen alarming biodiversity declines. These finding are the result of a new 2010 Biodiversity Indicators Partnership (2010 BIP) paper published in leading journal Science and represent the first assessment of how targets made through the 2002 Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) have not been met.
Human well-being, in all it's many dimensions, and ecological integrity (health) intrinsically intertwine. This blog seeks to advocate for the preservation and enhancement of all life on Earth (Gaia). Life is precious and tenuous. We must cherish it in ourselves, in others, and in the natural world. Whatever happens to one; happens ultimately to all. "We can't solve problems by using the same kind of thinking we used when we created them." - Albert Einstein
