The disappearance and degradation of biodiversity is costing the global economy more than the banking crisis, according to UN-backed analysis.
Eight years ago, governments pledged to halt the decline by 2010 - but they have failed.
Richard Black, the BBC's Environment Correspondent, chaired a discussion with Jonathan Baillie, Conservation Programmes Director at the Zoological Society of London, and Jon Williams, a partner at Sustainability and Climate Change, PricewaterhouseCoopers. They assessed the staggering scale of biodiversity loss, how much it is costing society and how it might be tackled.
