An opinion piece about the degree to which the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework invokes market-based as opposed to regulatory mechanisms.

B and W are often found enriched in high-temperature geothermal waters associated with the development of subduction-related mafic to felsic arc magma. However, knowledge about the sourcing and transportation of these elements from such hydrothermal systems is sparse and ambiguous. Being the only active continental collision site in the world, the...

In order to address to emerging environmental issues, it is important to encourage stakeholders to take responsible actions through education that includes awareness raising and capacity development.
