THE Cop15 UN Biodiversity Summit, billed as the last chance for the world’s ecosystems to be saved, is currently taking place in Montreal, running from December 7-19.
The summit’s statement of intent reads: “Governments from around the world will come together to agree on a new set of goals to guide global action…to halt and reverse nature loss.”
That is the aim — but shocking UN statistics reveal that over the last 40 years there has been over 70 per cent decline in wildlife globally, and scientists say that a million species are now at risk of dying out. Britain is among the bottom 10 per cent of the most nature-depleted countries with one in seven species at risk of extinction.
