Desde el AAAS Policy Alert:
Los representantes de 90 países se han unido para aprobar la formación de una Plataforma intergubernamental científico-normativa sobre diversidad biológica y servicios de los ecosistemas (IPBES) por la Asamblea General de la ONU. IPBES will carry out high-quality peer reviews of the science on biodiversity and ecosystems to provide gold standard reports to governments and will outline policy options and responses making sense of reports and assessments conducted by United Nations bodies, research centers, universities, and others as they relate to biodiversity and ecosystem services.
