Importance of Biodiversity Conservation

Biodiversity, the variation of life on earth is necessary for a healthy and steady environment.  Diversity of life ensures natural flexibility, gives people the life on which they depend, and improves life on earth. Due to human activities, the planet is now encountering a biodiversity emergency which leads to the loss of species, and a reduction in populations of species. And habitat.

Importance of biodiversity conservation

Economic growth and Poverty Reduction

Most of the plant species are used by local people to extract traditional medicine and Most of the People also rely on timber products for income and subsistence.

Vital for the solution of Climate Change

Ecosystems such as Forest ecosystems and wetlands store a tremendous amount of carbon in them. When we destroy these ecosystems, this carbon getaway into the atmosphere, worsening global warming. Forest can store more carbon from the atmosphere and contribute reduction in climate change.

Support the continuity of different ecosystems

Biodiversity plays a fundamental part in biological system revival and security. If the biodiversity is conserved then entire ecosystems that rely on them are protected.

Aesthetic value

The natural environment provides extraordinary delight to human beings with its structure, shape, and color which enhances people’s culture. Activities such as bird watching, visits to animal parks, and cultural heritage as ways of the increasing value of nature are only made conceivable through biodiversity conservation.

Provides ecosystem services

Biodiversity provides services to human life such as decomposition of waste, pollination, water purification, and maintenance of soil fertility.

The balance between atmospheric oxygen and carbon dioxide is maintained through biodiversity. Failure to preserve biodiversity results in the greenhouse gas effect and gradual depletion of ozone. The consequences are global warming and natural disaster.

We are confronting an unprecedented biodiversity crisis that threatens the future of human life. Our small steps can make a huge difference in biodiversity conservation.
