Abstract:	"Arguments over biodiversity conservation continue to generate more heat than light. This paper reviews pro-conservation arguments, concluding that the main policy requirements are to improve the scientific basis of our understanding, and to popularise up-to-date knowledge among a wide audience. This is essential if the debate is to be placed on a more factual, and less emotional footing."
