Steps towards Biodiversity Loss and Hotspots Conservation
Biodiversity or biological diversity refers to the degree of variation in various life forms in a given
ecosystem.
Biodiversity is the essence of nature and essential for our existence as it impacts the
overall health of the ecosystem.
The greater the diversity in biological forms, the better the health of
the ecosystem.
Biodiversity can be seen prominently in tropical climates where many diverse species
of micro organisms, plants, animals and birds are to be found.
Polar Regions on the other hand can
support fewer species and therefore are poorer in biodiversity.
As human development advances, biodiversity is on the decline.
This biodiversity loss is mainly
because of the destruction of animal and bird habitat.
Destruction of forests, wetlands, water bodies
by human activity result in biodiversity loss over time.
The loss of biological diversity is also due to
excessive pollution, population explosion and climatic chang
