To match feature ENVIRONMENT / BIODIVERSITY
The 167-kg (368 lb) leatherback marine turtle known as Tommy swims, in its new home, at the Sydney Aquarium in this April 12, 2006 file photo. In 2010 - the International Year of Biodiversity - the United Nations wants efforts to slow the accelerating pace of extinctions to reach beyond nature lovers, to companies and economists. Shifting emphasis from emotional images of polar bears, pandas or leatherbacks that stress the fragility and beauty of nature, the focus is on a harder-headed assessment of how the natural world is a key to economic growth and new products.

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, taken by Tim Wimborne in April 2006, we are introduced to Tommy, a magnificent leatherback marine turtle weighing an impressive 167 kilograms (368 pounds). The image showcases Tommy gracefully swimming in his new home at the Sydney Aquarium. This photograph holds particular significance as it aligns with the theme of environment and biodiversity. It serves as a reminder of the urgent need to address the escalating rate of extinctions worldwide. In 2010, which was designated as the International Year of Biodiversity by the United Nations, efforts were made to broaden awareness beyond just nature enthusiasts and appeal to companies and economists. Rather than relying solely on emotional imagery featuring iconic species like polar bears or pandas that emphasize nature's fragility and beauty, there has been a shift towards recognizing how our natural world is intricately linked to economic growth and innovation. This harder-headed approach highlights how preserving biodiversity can lead to new products and opportunities. Tim Wimborne's skillful capture not only showcases Tommy's majestic presence but also symbolizes our responsibility towards protecting Earth's diverse ecosystems. Through this powerful visual representation, we are reminded that safeguarding our environment is not only crucial for its intrinsic value but also for sustaining future generations' prosperity.
