Chapter 2. Conclusion. Verbatim.
Though biodiversity loss is occurring at a rapid rate, examples from all over the world show that people are beginning to make choices and take actions that benefit biodiversity. However, we need more action if further biodiversity loss is to be averted.

The rest of this guide will help inform you about issues to consider, steps you can take and examples of positive action for biodiversity.
