Ecosystem services and biodiversity in developing countries (2007, background): “Conservation International noted that 19 out of 25 biodiversity “hotspots” had population growth rates higher than the global average and 16 of these hotspots account for one quarter of all undernourished people in the developing world (Cincotta and Engelman 2000).”
Biodiversity conservation and agricultural sustainability: towards a new paradigm of ‘ecoagriculture’ landscapes (2008, background): “More than 1.1 billion people, most agriculture-dependent, now live within the world’s 25 biodiversity ‘hot spots’, areas described by ecologists as the most threatened species-rich regions on Earth (Cincotta & Engelman 2000; Myers et al. 2002).”
