The Guiana Shield Priority Setting Platform (GSPSP) has been launched in Guyana, and will help countries within the Guiana Shield, through satellite images, to focus on how to save the Amazon forest. The countries will work through biodiversity, conservation initiatives, ecosystem services, socio-economics and natural resources, GINA said.
