The world’s nations have agreed a funding plan at UN talks in Rome for reversing the decline of nature. Countries were eventually able to overcome deep divisions which had led to the breakdown of negotiations last year in Colombia. It is hoped that the deal will help countries to reach their goal of raising $200bn (£159bn) by 2030 for biodiversity action. The current rate of species decline is so great globally that many scientists warn humans could be causing the “sixth mass extinction” on Earth.
