Target 7.B: Biodiversity
Reduce biodiversity loss, achieving, by 2010, a significant reduction in the rate of loss Other Information:
The world has missed the 2010 target for biodiversity conservation, with potentially grave consequences. Key habitats for
threatened species are not being adequately protected. The number of species facing extinction is growing by the day, especially
in developing countries. Overexploitation of global fisheries has stabilized, but steep challenges remain to ensure their
sustainability.
