Biodiversity: An index of intactness
Georgina M. Mace1
Abstract
The global community is committed to reducing the rate of loss of biodiversity, but how can progress be measured? A novel system to tackle the problem may also identify key factors behind the changes.
Setting targets has become an increasingly common part of working life, and one that sometimes seems an unnecessary extra burden. But setting the target is just the beginning: gauging progress can be a major undertaking, and all this work will be in vain if the means to achieve the targets are not in place.
