Conservationist Vincent Florens shares with us how other countries could solve their biodiversity loss through the conservation experience of Mauritius, laboratory of hope. Mauritius is at the forefront of biodiversity destruction with only 2% of its native habitat left. Success at rebuilding and conserving biodiversity here can give hope and provide methods for other parts of the world where environmental loss is an issue.
Vincent Florens is an associate professor of ecology and former head of the Department of Biosciences at the University of Mauritius. His main research interest is the conservation of biodiversity in tropical terrestrial systems with particular emphasis on the impact of invasive alien species on the biodiversity of tropical forests.
