Biodiversity
refers to the
variety
and
number
of organisms and their
genes
in an area.
View source
The growing population leads to a need for more space for
infrastructure
, which can result in
less space
for other animal/plant habitats.
View source
Deforestation
,
land use
,
waste management
, and
maintaining biodiversity
are all factors that contribute to the
loss
of
biodiversity.
View source
Global warming
is a major cause of
habitat destruction
, leading to
soil erosion
,
extinction
,
flash flooding
, and the
release
of
greenhouse gases.
View source
Recycling reduces waste in landfill and lessens the need to source new raw materials.
View source
Managing pollution of air, water, and land is crucial in maintaining biodiversity.
View source
The growing population leads to more
waste
and a
higher
demand for
raw materials
, which can lead to more
natural disasters.
View source
Large biodiversity leads to a more stable ecosystem.
View source
Rising temperatures can lead to the extinction of species that cannot adapt, such as coral reef.
View source
Greenhouse gases
, such as
CO2
and
methane
, are linked to
global warming.
