PART FOUR

SAVING BIODIVERSITY

Figure 20. Bending the curve of biodiversity loss. This diagram, produced by the Secretariat of the Convention on Biological Diversity, lists the most impactful actions to protect and restore nature, which I discuss in more concrete terms in the following chapters and throughout this book. They belong to five broad categories: 1) conserving what is left and restoring what we’ve degraded; 2) combating climate change, through reduced emissions and increased carbon sequestration from the atmosphere; 3) reducing other drivers, by taking action against pollution, invasive species and overexploitation; 4) creating more sustainable forms of production of goods and services, particularly food; and 5) reducing consumption and waste by all of us.
