26. 03/19/01 -- World Rainforest Movement Bulletin #44: Biodiversity, Forests And Pe World Rainforest Movement Bulletin 44 Biodiversity, forests and people WORLD RAINFOREST MOVEMENT MOVIMIENTO MUNDIAL POR LOS BOSQUES http://forests.org/archive/general/wrm44.htm

World Rainforest Movement Bulletin #44: Biodiversity, forests and people WORLD RAINFOREST MOVEMENT MOVIMIENTO MUNDIAL POR LOS BOSQUES International Secretariat Maldonado 1858, CP 11200 Montevideo Uruguay Ph +598 2 403 2989 Fax +598 2 408 0762 E-mail: wrm@wrm.org.uy Web page: http://www.wrm.org.uy March 19, 2000 THE FOCUS OF THIS ISSUE: Biodiversity, forests and people Biodiversity loss constitutes a major threat to millions of people throughout the world and particularly in the tropics, where peoples' livelihoods strongly depend on forests and their biodiversity. At the same time, the increasing loss of biodiversity and forests puts a question mark on humanity's future on Earth. The fact that the Convention on Biological Diversity's Scientific Body (SBSTTA) has recently addressed the forest issue provides a good opportunity to highlight the problem seeking for solutions. We have therefore focused this WRM Bulletin on the problem, looking at it from different perspectives and particularly on how biodiversity loss affects people at the local level, who are in fact protecting in many cases against their governments what governments have committed themselves to protect. In this issue: * OUR VIEWPOINT Biodiversity loss: The issues that need to be addressed before it is too late * LOCAL STRUGGLES AND NEWS AFRICA Kenya: Who favours and who destroys forest biodiversity?
