My holiday present: a global deal for nature. It includes an agreement to conserve 30% of the planet and to restore 30% of degraded areas, as well as $30 billion/yr by 2030 to support the implementation of the new global biodiversity framework. Let’s get to work! #COP15

We will miss our friend and colleague Tom Lovejoy, who devoted his life to the study and conservation of biodiversity. I remember visiting Camp 41 outside Manaus and spending many wonderful evenings at his home outside Washington DC. We will always remember him.
