Advice Document on Biodiversity 100
The goal of this project was to compile a list of 100 actions that, if implemented, would have an immediate effect on slowing down biodiversity loss in G20 countries. The SSG was asked to contribute an action that (1) would contribute to the safeguard of a particular endangered species or ecosystem, (2) was politically costly to implement or opposed by some interest groups, (3) strongly and widely supported by peer-reviewed scientific evidence.
