DNA methods have revolutionized crime forenzics since the 1990s; even "cold cases" are solved. Currently, the CBD's draft Global Biodiversity Framework doesn't include methodology for genetic diversity of most wild species & ecosystems to adapt to climate change. Isn't that odd?

Global rescue plan for nature 'overlooks genetic diversity'

A new 10-year strategy to halt extinction must protect the gene pools of all life on earth, say experts.
