Explainer 267: Nordic Council of Ministers series, part three – Biodiversity

The global environmental agenda has been dominated by aims to reduce CO2 emissions but increasingly the Nordic countries are turning their focus to biodiversity and protecting nature. ‘The Foreign Desk’ and our Denmark correspondent Michael Booth have teamed up with the Nordic Council of Ministers for a series of five special, monthly episodes delving deeper into topics of global importance from the region. The third episode looks at how the region is balancing the often-conflicting demands of CO2 reduction, industrial agriculture and the natural world.
