Priority setting for conservation

Its good getting priorities from someone like John - lots of interesting things to consider.  I posted his lecture.   If you want to read more about the Alliance for Zero Extinction, check out their stuff here.
A map of their site and species is above - can you guess what the dot just above us is?  I have posted jon's lecture on the class site.  I have also posted a couple of other papers under his lecture as well - one, which he mentioned in class, about resilience (here), and another that compares priorities for global conservation organizations with actual dollars spent (this one, as Jon put it, missed a real opportunity, due to the tone of the paper - see if you can see why).  Paper here and an interesting figure from it to the left.
