Marine litter is a growing global problem that impacts biodiversity and human societies alike. South-east Asis suffers significant impacts due to high biodiversity, dense human populations, and larger volumes of plastics entering the marine environment, primarily through rivers. Call Number: [EL]Physical Description: 20 p.
An analysis to collate recent biodiversity surveys within Key Biodiversity Areas in Guadalcanal, Malaita, Renbel and Temotu Provinces. This is a contribution to the EREPA (Ensuring Resilient Ecosystems and Representative Protected Areas in the Solomon Islands) project, with funding through SPREP.
This guide is about how to plan and implement the new global target for effectively and equitably conserving at least 30% of the Earth by 2030. This guide is intended to support countries in the development and exceution of their plans for GBF target 3. Call Number: [EL]Physical Description: 69 p.
In a collaborative effort, the Division of Environment and Conservation, of the Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment (MNRE), united with the Secretariat of the Pacific Regional Environment Programme (SPREP) to successfully conclude the initial phase of the Terrestrial Biodive
In good news for nature in a challenging moment, representatives of 185 countries agreed at the Global Environment Facility’s Seventh Assembly in Canada to launch an innovative new fund for biodiversity that will attract funding from governments, philanthropy, and the private sector.

Global efforts to deliver internationally agreed goals to reduce carbon emissions, halt biodiversity loss, and retain essential ecosystem services have been poorly integrated. These goals rely in part on preserving natural (e.g., native, largely unmodified) and semi-natural (e.g., low intensity or sustainable human use) forests, woodlands, and grasslands. To show how to unify these goals, we empirically derived spatially explicit, quantitative, area-based targets for the retention of natural and semi-natural (e.g., native) terrestrial vegetation worldwide.
The Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework envisages an increasing reliance on large-scale private finance to fund biodiversity targets. We warn that this may pose contradictions in delivering conservation outcomes and propose a critical ongoing role for direct public funding of conservation and public oversight of private nature-related financial mechanisms.
Backed by the UN, an alliance of conservationists and policymakers is devising new ways to finance the preservation of biodiversity by placing economic values on ecosystems. Some analysts say such schemes have the potential to boost conservation, but others are skeptical.
When conservation scientist Junior Novera was growing up in Mapisi Village, on a bend of the Sinamut River in Bougainville, Papua New Guinea, he’d never heard the term conservation.
