Executive secretary of the UN Convention on Biological Diversity, Ahmed Djoghlat, lauded Norton for his devotion to biological conservation, but stressed the challenge posed by the uNPRecedented loss of biodiversity.

"We are reaching the tipping point where irreversible damage is going to be done and therefore we need an urgent call for action," Djoghlat said at the press conference.
