Why biodiversity is worth saving

In recognition of the United Nations’ declaration of 2010 as the ‘International Year of Biodiversity’, the Association for Tropical Biology and Conservation (ATBC) has included a special section on the biodiversity in its September 2010 issue of Biotropica.



The section includes 16 commentaries assembled by Jaboury Ghazoul, an ecologist at ETH Zurich and Editor-in-Chief of Biotropica. The editorials cover a wide range of issues relating to biodiversity, including:

Many of the editorials are freely accessible via the Biotropica web site.



In support of the issue, ATBC has created a special page with biographies of the authors.



The Association for Tropical Biology and Conservation is the world’s largest scientific organization devoted to the study and wise use of tropical ecosystems.
