PARIS (AP) Protecting the world’s biodiversity was on the agenda today for world leaders at the One Planet Summit, which was being held by videoconference due to the coronavirus pandemic.
The one-day summit will focus on four major topics: protecting terrestrial and marine ecosystems; promoting agroecology, a more sustainable way to grow food; increasing funding to protect biodiversity; and identifying links between deforestation and the health of humans and animals.
