Delegates from all over the world descended on Nagoya in Japan on Monday for talks considered vital to sustaining the future of animal, plant and human life on Earth.For two weeks, delegates at the 10th meeting (COP10) of the Convention on Biological Diversity will try to agree a 20-point plan for the next decade following the comprehensive failure of any government to meet previous targets set out in 2002.
"Nagoya is the main global event to converse the value of nature and the costs of its loss to the whole world," Pavan Sukhdev, special advisor and head of UNEP's Green Economy Initiative told.
