Mounting Biodiversity Loss Poses Threat to Human Survival
Paul Virgo, Inter Press Service: "When people talk about biodiversity loss, discussion often centres on the tragedy of animals like the tiger and the panda being in danger of extinction. It is as if the world were about to be deprived of precious parts of its heritage, perhaps comparable to works by Mozart or Shakespeare - sad yet not something that will affect our everyday existence. Unfortunately, this widely held vision is misguided."
