At the UN Biodiversity Conference (CoP15), currently taking place in Montreal, Canada, delegates from 196 countries are negotiating a new post-2020 Global Biodiversity Framework to attempt to halt the rapid destruction of species worldwide. The vision is to ensure that biodiversity is valued, protected and restored by 2050.
