Last weeks had been quite busy regarding News in the context of forests, REDD+ and all this environmental stuff. Even before and during the last climate meetings in Tianjin (UN Climate Change Conference) there have been dozens of news messages, articles and stories all dealing with forests and REDD+ and Conservation...

But since begin of this week (18.10.2010) all sources are silent. There is near to nothing regarding REDD+ and forest in the news...

Even REDD-Monitor is silent...

What happened?

The reason is a simple one:

It seems that all of these people who are taking care of the global communication on REDD+ and forest are in Japan at the Tenth meeting of the Conference of the Parties (COP 10) of the Converence on Biological Biodiversity.

This is an interesting observation as it seems that most of the people who are forming the global opinion on REDD+ are listening biodiversity topics...
