I should like to remind you that biodiversity has no price attached, but its loss, its decline and its destruction do have a cost which contributes to the increase in poverty and which engenders inequalities and considerable losses in economic, welfare and cultural terms.
Rappelons que la biodiversité n ’ a pas de prix, mais sa perte, son déclin, sa destruction ont un coût, qui contribue à l ’ accroissement de la pauvreté et qui engendre des déséquilibres et des pertes considérables en termes économiques, de bien-être et culturels.
