Alarm grows over disturbing' lack of progress to save nature at Cop16
Briefly

"Governments risk another decade of failure on biodiversity loss, due to the slow implementation of an international agreement to halt the destruction of Earth's ecosystems."
"Political prioritisation of nature is still too low...Several targets are very easy to measure: 30x30 has metrics on area and quality; we have new data that show we're not on pace."
"As country representatives dig into their second week of negotiations at Cop16 in Cali, Colombia, their first meeting since Montreal, alarm is growing at the lack of concrete progress on any of the major targets they agreed upon."
"At the time of publication, 158 countries are yet to submit formal plans on how they are going to meet the targets, according to Carbon Brief, missing their deadline this month ahead of the biodiversity summit in Cali."
