UNEP/GRID-Arendal has produced a report on migratory species: 

Living Planet: Connected Planet – Preventing the End of the World’s Wildlife Migrations through Ecological Networks

Through the air, over land and in water, over ten thousand species numbering millions of animals travel around the world in a network of migratory pathways. The very foundation of these migratory species is their connection to places and corridors across the planet. The loss of a single point in their migration can jeopardize the entire population, while their concentrations make them highly vulnerable to overharvesting and poaching.
The full report, an interactive e-book and downloadable maps and graphics are available on

UNEP/GRID-Arendal's EarthWire Marine news service (http://earthwire.org/marine/) has been online for one year, and therefore we have made a quick survey to find out what its users - and even non-users - think about it. Please take the survey and help us improve the EarthWire Marine! It will take you 5 minutes or less, so you can do it in your coffee break.
Take survey here: http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/YJH7G5Y

The survey will be open for 1 month - until 12th September 2010.

EarthWire, an environment news service introduced by UNEP/GRID-Arendal in 1999, provides a daily overview of the environment as reported in the media. Collecting environmental news from across continents, the service largely depends on the availability of media on the Internet. It also collects audios, videos, press releases and news from research organisations, the public as well as the private sector and environmental organisations. EarthWire gives you a free daily overview of environmental news, and comes in six editions: EarthWire Norway (Miljønytt), United Kingdom, Kazakhstan, Africa, Climate and Marine.

Thank you very much for giving us your views!
