Mistress & Maid by Jiaohongji

This book features a foreword by Edward O. Wilson and compiles insights from leading experts in science, society, and conservation policy. It tackles the urgent issue of biodiversity loss, exploring how to establish conservation priorities scientifically, assess the often-overlooked long-term benefits of conservation versus immediate land development, and the importance of education in rapidly growing populations. The authors, united in their commitment to preserving biological diversity, discuss the extensive decline of global biodiversity, including threats to marine life and mammal extinctions, while highlighting the impact on human health, agriculture, and the economy. The Living Planet in Crisis is a product of a significant conference on these critical issues. Mai mult
