By making facts available during this method, we are hoping to permit a metamorphosis within the perform of conservation, so it may develop into extra evidence-based. We additionally goal to focus on the place there are gaps in knowledge.
Evidence from all over the international is incorporated. If there seems to be a bias in the direction of proof from northern ecu or North American temperate environments, this displays a present bias within the released learn that's to be had to us.
