"Most famously in recent memory was the #Mars #Climate #Orbiter in 1999. The $125 million #space probe broke up in the #Martian #atmosphere after #engineers at #LockheedMartin, who built the instrument, used the #US #Customary System of #measurement rather than #metric measurements used by others on the #project. The #probe descended too close to the surface and was lost."

This suggest there are major potentials for co-benefits between conservation and sustainable development, particularly through inclusive initiatives to strengthen #customary rights of local communities. #IPL
