Deep concern over the rapid loss of biodiversity and the recognition of its important role in supporting human life motivated the adoption, at the Rio Earth Summit in 1992, of the Convention on Biological Diversity, a legally binding global treaty. The Convention has three main objectives: Participation in the Convention is nearly universal, with 187 countries* currently members, a sign that the whole world is well aware of the need to work together to ensure the survival of life on Earth. * In 2007, the CBD was signed by 190 parties, including 189 countries and the European Community. In 2002, the Conference of the Parties to the Convention adopted a Strategic Plan, with the mission “to achieve, by 2010, a significant reduction of the current rate of biodiversity loss at the global, regional and national level, as a contribution to poverty alleviation and to the benefit of all life on Earth” This 2010 target was subsequently endorsed by the Heads of State and Government at the 2002 World Summit on Sustainable Development in Johannesburg, South Africa, and world leaders meeting at the 2005 World Summit of the United Nations reiterated their commitment to meeting the 2010 target. In order to assess progress towards the 2010 Biodiversity Target, the Conference of the Parties adopted a framework of seven focal areas to guide action. For each of these seven focal areas, the Conference identified indicators for evaluating biodiversity status and trends, and outcome-oriented goals and targets, which act as sub-targets to the overall 2010 Biodiversity Target.

Počela međunarodna konferencija o zaštiti okoliša i spašavanju ugroženih vrsta Predstavnici 193 zemlje potpisnice, gospodarstvenici i predstavnici nevladinih organizacija okupili su se na 10. konferenciji potpisnica CBD-a Međunarodna konferencija o bioraznolikosti počela je u ponedjeljak u japanskome gradu Nagoyi kako bi se zadali strateški ciljevi kojima će se smanjiti izumiranje vrsta i uništenje okoliša. Predstavnici 193 zemlje potpisnice, gospodarstvenici i predstavnici nevladinih organizacija okupili su se na 10. konferenciji potpisnica Konvencije o biološkoj raznolikosti (CBD). Tijekom dvotjednog sastanka potpisnice CBD-a će raspravljati i o dobrobitima koje proizlaze iz korištenja genetskih izvora. No razvijene zemlje i zemlje u razvoju podijeljene su u pogledu nekih od glavnih pitanja, zbog čega bi se razgovori mogli otegnuti kao i u slučaju pregovora o klimi. CBD je izrasla iz Summita o Zemlji koji je 1992. održan u Rio de Janeiru, kao i Konvencija UN-a o klimatskim promjenama. CBD ima tri glavna cilja: očuvanje biološke raznolikosti, održivo korištenje komponenata biološke raznolikosti i ravnopravnu raspodjelu dobrobiti od korištenja genetskih izvora. Godine 2002. potpisnice Konvencije obvezale su se da će do 2010. znatno umanjiti stopu gubitka bioraznolikosti kako bi se smanjilo siromaštvo i dobrobit za život na Zemlji, ali nisu uspjele ostvariti te ciljeve.
