The 2022 UN (Cop 15) Biodiversity Conference in Montreal has closed, reaching an agreement which is a significant breakthrough for biodiversity. The agreement reflects never-before-seen recognition from countries at all income levels that biodiversity loss must be stopped through high-ambition changes to our society’s relationship with nature and the way our global economy operates. It creates momentum toward "30 by 30" - aspiring to protect 30 percent of land and marine spaces by 2030. See the UN Website HERE and their statement HERE
