Authors

Biodiversity can be seen as an exemplary issue for sustainability communication. In addition the conflictual relationship between conservation and sustainable use will be illustrated using selected examples. From the perspective of successful sustainability communication, this chapter will show not only the complexity of cause and effect but also the options there are to conserve biological diversity. Special importance is attributed to the systematic relationship between biological and cultural diversity, since this is given a key role in the formulation of recommendations for developing sustainability communication.
