Abstract

Climate Law 2 (2011) 85­115 DOI 10.3233/CL-2011-027 IOS Press Notes from the field Elisa Morgera* It has become increasingly inaccurate to refer to a "mismatch" between biodiversity law and climate change law,1 at least in as far as the Convention on Biological Diversity2 is concerned. The legal and policy implications of the impacts of climate change on biodiversity, as well as of mitigation and adaptation measures, have been progressively addressed by the CBD. This process experienced a steep acceleration at the tenth meeting of the Conference of the Parties to the CBD (COP 10, held from 18 to 29 October 2010, in Nagoya, Japan)3 that resulted in a host of LL.M., Ph.D., Lecturer in European Environmental Law and Director of the LLM Programme in Global Environment and Climate Change Law, University of Edinburgh School of Law, UK.
