A draft study prepared by the CBD Secretariat, in response to Decision X/33, para 9(l), compiles and synthesizes available scientific information on the possible impacts of geo-engineering techniques on biodiversity, including preliminary information on associated social, economic and cultural considerations. The study is now in its second round of the peer-review process by Parties. The final report will be used to prepare a pre-session document for the 16th meeting of the Subsidiary Body on Scientific, Technical and Technological Advice (SBSTTA-16).
Comments and views are due to the CBD Secretariat no later than 22 February.

CBD: Geo-Engineering Liaison Group
The CBD Secretariat has called for experts to participate in a liaison group to work on defining climate-related geo-engineering and assessing the potential impacts of geo-engineering on biodiversity. Members should possess knowledge and understanding of geo-engineering, global change processes and biodiversity. Most of the work will be carried out electronically, however some members will meet from 29 June-1 July 2011, in London (UK).
