Abstract
As nations convene this week in Cali, Colombia, at the Sixteenth Conference of the Parties (COP16) to the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD), the alarming rate at which the world is losing biodiversity will again be in the spotlight. Habitat destruction, climate change, pollution, and unsustainable use of resources continue to drive this loss. COP16 (the organization's highest authority) presents another opportunity for world leaders to do more than just assess progress and renew commitments, and instead adopt binding obligations for the entire world.
