Dear all -
Take 2 minutes, if you can, to enjoy my Forest Pest Rap, written to
advertise the new FAO Guide re Forest Pests described in Sandy Liebhold's
email below.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9-0ighGsrUE
FAO's communications specialist Tullia Baldassarri did a great job on
this. Please can you help us go "viral" by sending this to relevant
colleagues????
We particularly hope to reach all sectors of forest industry with advice
on pest management and info about the international phytosanitary
standards that can/will affect their business. Plant health regulators can
learn about forestry from this Guide, and researchers can learn how the
International Plant Protection Convention works to prevent pest spread.
Something for everyone, so please spread the word!
Kerry
PS: The Guide is the result of over a year's effort by many global forest
pest experts (see Guide link below for the list), led by Gillian Allard of
FAO.
