Answer:
At international level, many countries of the world have taken initiatives for the biodiversity conservation. For example, the Earth Summit was held in Rio de Janeiro in 1992, which called upon all nations to take appropriate measures for the conservation of biodiversity and its sustainabte utilisation. It promoted Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) which was signed by 152 nations. Its recommendations came into effect on 29th Dec, 1993. The second world summit on sustainabte development was held in Johannesburg, South Africa, in 2002 in which 190 countries pledged to significantly reduce the current rate of biodiversity loss at global, regional and local levels by the year 2010. World Conservation Union, World Wide Fund (WWF) for nature and Convention in International Trade in Endangered Species (CITES) are also working for the biodiversity conservation.
