Biodiversity is the Lifeblood of Nature
Biodiversity is essential to the continued existance of all living things on earth. If an ecosystem has lots of biodiversity, and a change occurs in that ecosystem, then it is much more likely that a species will have the necessary genes or behaviours to survive that change. Not having enough biodiversity can be catastrophic.
