Abstract

Soft-targeting biodiversity development without strong sanctioning –cum- incentive mechanism is the key policy achievement for CBD in Nagoya October 2010 so far….Let us see how CBD can possibly work in 21st Century of informational urban system….How far the instrumentality of the soft-targeting for environmental governance can functionally proceed in the coming decade requires much beefing-up not just in terms of mass-media and non-governmental organizations -driven activism, but also a set of well-coherent framework of reasoning and discourses, exploitable by the action agencies for biodiversity, to shape more positive and pro-active actions undertaken by nation states – here, this paper attempts to making sense the CBD from bioethical perspectives, aiming to develop an explicit and elaborated- shared ethical-normative framework to inform policy making.The paper examines the arguably contradictions between economic developmentalism and biodiversity which define and shape the policy choices-driven dilemma for all stakeholders across different, inter-generational cohorts of ages; they also present a challenge for inter- nation state not to pursue biodiversity friendly policy initiatives for sustainable development – the learned inertia for engaging processes for biodiversity development. Furthermore, it also raises critical remarks on the project for biodiversity and eternal peace
