UEBT AND CBD PROMOTE BIODIVERSITY LOSS

摘要

The Union for Ethical BioTrade (UEBT) and the Secretariat of the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) have signed a memorandum of understanding which will see the two organisations work together and contribute to the CBD's Strategic Plan for biodiversity 2011-2020, part of the UN's Decade on Biodiversity programme. Under the plan, which contains 20 targets to help halt the loss of biodiversity by 2020, the UEBT and CBD will worktogether on key issues including raising public awareness of biodiversity and promote the role businesses can play in protecting biodiversity.
