Everybody interesting in environment protection may have a closer look to the Global Biodiversity Outlook 3 (http://gbo3.cbd.int/) which was presented on Monday. This UN nations report comes to very sad conclusion that a large number of species has already disappeared. Future outlook is not so good. Launching the report, Global Manager Delfin Ganapin said: "We are reaching what’s called ‘tipping points,’ where irreversible damage is going to be done to the planet unless we act now – affecting not just tropical species, but biodiversity that was closer to home, such food crops and livestock."
