Description

Scientists argue that we are entering a sixth mass extinction event as biodiversity is declining at an unprecedented
rate. In contrast to prior mass extinction events caused by natural phenomena, this extinction event is the result of human activity leading to climate change or habitat degradation.

Simon Happersberger, researcher at the Brussels School of Governance working on sustainable trade, joins us today to
discuss the linkages between biodiversity and economic policy and trade.
