Vice-premier advocates biodiversity measures

Vice-Premier Han Zheng called on countries to communicate more effectively about post-2020 biodiversity protection targets during this year's key United Nations conference on the issue.

Han spoke on Monday in an address made via video link at the One Planet Summit, hosted by France and backed by the UN and the World Bank.

The summit was held as preparations are made for the 15th meeting of the Conference of the Parties to the Convention on Biological Diversity, which will be held this year in Kunming, Yunnan's provincial capital.
