Biodiversity

• Biodiversity is the variety of all the different species of organisms on each, or within an ecosystem
• A great biodiversity ensures the stability of ecosystems by reducing the dependence of one species on another for food, shelter, and the maintenance of a physical environment
• The future of the human species on earth relies on us maintaining a good level of biodiversity. Many human activities are reducing biodiversity and only recently have measures been taken to try and stop this reduction
