Budget For Conservation - James Watson

Countries have endless amounts of money in the name of national security and military budgets. But if nations around the world put just 2.5% of their annual military budgets toward conservation and the proper management of parklands, Wildlife Conservation Society's James Watson argues that we could save much of the world's biodiversity. Watson argues that proper management of parks is urgent, as opposed to what happens to parklands in much of the world, where parks are established and then left just as lines on a map, without any actual government protection.
