Could you use Hydro-Québec's strategy for protecting biodiversity as a model for a consensus-based approach, one that all biodiversity advocates would support? You could use it as a basis for future work. It would give you security, you and the companies you represent. You would have a broad agreement that adheres to certain conditions. On the surface, you would have the research knowledge and tools to make the process easier and more consistent across the board.
Is that something that would be feasible, or am I dreaming in technicolour, as I tend to do?
