YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Negotiators at a UN biodiversity conference on Monday reached an agreement hailed as a landmark global effort to protect the world's lands and oceans.

The most significant part of the deal is the commitment to protect 30% of land and water considered important for biodiversity before the end of the decade. Currently, just 17% of terrestrial and 10% of marine areas are protected.

The agreement comes a day before the United Nations Biodiversity Conference, or COP15, is set to end in Montreal, Canada.
