The United Nations' Convention on Biological Diversity, COP16, is underway in Cali, Colombia. The meeting brings together government officials and environmental leaders to discuss the global crisis of biodiversity loss.

The report highlights a major funding gap and inadequate protection of marine ecosystems. World leaders will need to come together to find solutions to these pressing issues.
