DESCRIPTION:Dr David Cooper will highlight why urgent action to halt and r
 everse biodiversity loss is important\, describe progress in achieving the
  goals and targets of the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework\,
  and discuss what further steps are needed.\n\nThe Kunming-Montreal Global
  Biodiversity Framework was agreed by all governments at COP-15 of the Con
 vention on Biological Diversity in December 2022. It sets out an ambitious
  agenda to halt and reverse the loss of biodiversity and put nature on a p
 ath to recovery by 2030. Later this year\, at COP-17\, the international c
 ommunity will take stock of progress towards 2030 targets and 2050 goals o
 f the KMGBF.\n\nIn this talk\, David Cooper will highlight why it is impor
 tant to take urgent action — why biodiversity is important for people’
 s security and wellbeing. Drawing upon recent reports he will present what
  we know about progress towards the goals and targets\, in the UK and glob
 ally\, and describe future prospects. He will argue that current efforts m
 ust be complemented by actions across all sectors of the economy and socie
 ty to promote and enable the transformative changes needed to ensure that 
 people and nature can thrive together.
