Avoiding souvenirs produced from threatened or protected plant and animal species

Choose suppliers based on their compliance with your standards, and by specifying requirements for the goods and services that you obtain from them

Don’t use any items that are obtained from threatened species or populations (either on the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species, http://www.iucnredlist.org, or on the CITES Appendices, http://www.cites.org)

Don’t use resources that are produced or harvested by methods that are unregulated or particularly damaging to biodiversity, some of which, such as dynamite fishing, may also be illegal.

Ensure that, wherever possible, products come from sustainably harvested and/or sustainably produced sources and, if relevant, are certified and labelled under certification schemes that include biodiversity criteria
