 If you want to hear how biodiversity is presented to practitioners in the callous world of mining, have a listen to Kristal Maze and Dan Sonneberg in conversation with Martin Creamer, the legendary and progressive journalist of engineering and mining.  You can find them on  http://www.miningweekly.com/article/how-to-mine-and-shine-2011-05-20  "We have a real ally in Martin Creamer", Kristal has been heard to say.  And indeed, he has been open to airing the biodiversity debate for a long time, going back to the NBI days of the Ball Agreement (anyone remember that?).   Visit the site above and watch Kristal carving a convincing niche for the biodiversity economy in the in the harsh world of coal-fired energy, karoo-fracking and strip mining.
