At stake is the health of the Earth's ecosystems and the million plant and animal species threatened with extinction as a result of habitat destruction, pollution and the climate crisis. David Ainsworth, a spokesman for the UN Environment Programme, told reporters:"The atmosphere deteriorated when the group started discussing concepts, in particular the global biodiversity fund proposal" - a new fund sought by low income nations to help them achieve their objectives.China, which is chairing the summit, was set to hold a major meeting involving all heads of delegations to resolve the impasse.
