After the distribution of
the inaugural issue,
Biodiversity received
enthusiastic supports from
readers and organizations.
The following sample
indicates clearly the need
and usefulness of
Biodiversity:
David Suzuki,
Canadian geneticist, host
of the television series "The
Nature of Things"
wrote: "Most people do
not know what biodiversity
means, let alone why it is
important. The source that
humanity needs and uses is
biodiversity. This journal
is desperately needed to
guide us toward ecological
balance."
J. D. Shorthouse,
Scientific Committee
Chair, Biological Survey
of Canada: "To Dr. Don
E. McAllister,
Editor-in-Chief: On behalf
of the Scientific
Committee of the
Biological Survey of
Canada (Terrestrial
Arthropods), I send you
and your colleagues my
congratulations for
resurrecting the journal
Global biodiversity
under the auspice of the
new title
Biodiversity... The
Biological Survey of
Canada will take great
interest in the aims and
articles in
Biodiversity..."
Alison Welch,
Librarian, RWED Library,
Government of the NWT:
"I am so pleased to see
someone continuing on the
good work of Global
biodiversity. My
clients and I have always
found it to be an
excellent journal. "
Marion D. Ennes,
Fort Bragg, California:
"I am delighted to
hear of the continuing
publication of
Biodiversity and
grateful to Tropical
Conservancy for
supporting your efforts."
Fae Collins
Mooney,
Journalist, Terrace, BC:
" I was so pleased -
and excited - to receive
your complementary premier
issue of
Biodiversity, Journal of
Life on Earth (what a
beautiful title)... I was
overjoyed. And as I
browsed through pages I
found myself saying: Yes!
Yes! Yes! This is great!
Biodiversity is
back! The environment has
a strong voice acting in
its defence once again...
Yes, I feel very proud to
become a charter
subscriber and supporter
of the new
Biodiversity. Thank
you for educating me and
keeping me informed. You
provide a unique and value
perspective. Thank you so
much."
