No need to wait until "after the crisis". Start TODAY by calling on citizens of the affluent world to cut intake of meat,dairy,eggs,fish by 50% to take pressure of nature, species, oceans, ecosystems & allow nature & species to be left alone and recover. This is the only way!

If there is one thing that the Coronavirus outbreak should teach us, humans are not in control, never have been and never will. Mother Nature will always have the upper hand.

Germany must assist in making the #UNDRIP (article 31) and ILO 169 effective for Indigenous communities in developing countries.

So needed, thank you. But please, please, please reconsider the continuation of valuing nature by the $ or any other financial unit.

Thanks for this proposal. The Plenary will have to consider the new and emerging priorities with all the challenges we are facing today. Also the on going assessments can include options for a review this very important issue.

This has been obvious for years but at least if it is now addressed, something good will come from this pandemic.
