So now that we know all of the major parts and moving pieces of the CBD and COP, it's time to tackle what's happening this year at COP13. The overarching theme this year is a big one: Mainstreaming Biodiversity for Well-Being- and that doesn't mean explaining to your grandparents what biodiversity is. The goal of mainstreaming biodiversity, is to make sure it is included, and understood, across a breadth of different sectors, with a focus on agriculture, fisheries, forestry, and tourism. Now, believe me, there's a lot going on (as you can see here), but some of the main things that are happening include a review on where we are with the Strategic Plan for Biodiversity 2011-2020, a review of the progress towards achieving Aichi target 16, how to better protect marine and coastal biodiversity, and how to deal with invasives (and that's just the first day). I can't personally speak to your interests and persuasions, but here's another breakdown of what the next two weeks may look like, for you to pick and choose to learn more about at your leisure. What's important to remember, as you peruse through all of these links, is that this conference is all about mainstreaming biodiversity, and that means looking at what's worked, what hasn't worked, and where we can go from here.

A durable material for your welcome sign to withstand outdoor elements if you plan to display it outside. Weather-resistant materials like metal, PVC, or treated wood ensure longevity and maintain the sign's appearance over time. Consider protective coatings or finishes for added durability.

I'm blown away by the attention to detail in this property. From the custom millwork to the designer lighting fixtures, every aspect exudes quality and craftsmanship. It's clear that no expense was spared in creating a home that's as functional as it is beautiful.
