Belgian Biodiversity Platform produces video about biodiversity research

“Biodiversity is not only an environmental issue. Biodiversity is a security issue, a foreign policy issue, an economic issue…” says Johan Rockström, Executive Director of the Stockholm Resilience Centre. During the Planet under Pressure conference (London, 26 to 28 April 2012) the Belgian Biodiversity Platform* produced a video devoted to biodiversity research. In this video biodiversity experts point that technological fixes cannot be considered as substitutes for biodiversity and the services it provides to human beings. They call for exploration nature-based solutions as key to solve current and future crisis and demonstrate the need for a real mind shift in that field.

Watch the video. Listen to experts points of view:
