0:00:04because people don't value conservation
0:00:07as much as they show that because they don't see it in the data they
0:00:10realise that estimation conservation in money always undervalued conservation
0:00:16it could be that we could use
0:00:19individual animals and plants as a kind of currency we could use an accounting approach
0:00:25that was based on how many individuals of each read speech is less
0:00:29so the task of the reason the well the more
0:00:32every reminded his valuable
0:00:34the fewer rhinoceros is around while the more variable each one
0:00:38how many of the strings theses do we find in particular areas and a global
0:00:42scale
0:00:43once we were able to find out how many animals how many individual animals of
0:00:47all articles p c's persistent predicted it is and we could find out what proportion
0:00:52of the budgets all those particular areas comes from tourism revenues tourists visiting as bases
0:00:57have the and in section
0:01:00factor
0:01:01so
0:01:02basically why
0:01:05and so then when we combine the idea of using
0:01:09number of individuals as a as a conservation currency and proportion of budget is a
0:01:15measure tourism contribution women like those to do you get a we were able to
0:01:19calculate
0:01:21for threatened species well why what proportions of the remaining populations reliant for some funding
0:01:28we were able to use data from are you see and we wanted our information
0:01:33to be available not only to academics but apart manages and element environmental policy people
0:01:39worldwide
0:01:41most people even in remote countries even in remote a do not have internet access
0:01:47but they don't have library subscription
0:01:50make that information instantly available free anywhere in the world
0:01:55globally and questions or looking towards meeting consideration pockets modesty so nations everywhere they have
0:02:03signed up to the double consider a conventional biological diversity and as such they
0:02:08have set targets to actually society useful protection so the side targets from reading certain
0:02:13species requirement stravinsky six functions and work we show et cetera isn't can be used
0:02:18as a mechanism to actually do the some of those goals and objectives and so
0:02:22while the general public may not actually use research directly
0:02:27they are benefiting directly from it through the potential i'm policy decisions of my you
0:02:32make an o money taken by governments to assign more money to was predicted it
