What is SANBI's
Biodiversity Advisor?
The Biodiversity Advisor provides a single
point of entry for any biodiversity question.
SANBI’s Biodiversity Advisor makes it easy to
navigate to the right information and tools
among the range of resources provided by SANBI.
Users come to SANBI for assistance with a
range of biodiversity-related activities, from
environmental impact assessments to species
identification and taxonomy. The Biodiversity
Advisor shows you the right place to start,
and guides you through the process.
Have a look around to see what’s on offer.

There is now a new and
informative website [http://www.acaciavote.com]
for voting on the Acacia retypification
controversy. Please note that the website
supersedes the original voting proforma.
Those who have voted
previously using the proforma have had their
details (including email address) recorded on the
website already. If they vote again to check that
their previous vote has been registered, they will
find their second vote disallowed.
Please spread the word to
other interested people who may want to vote on
this issue. |
