What is biodiversity? The earth is made of various life forms and species. Biology and diversity put together is biodiversity. Part of biodiversity is the variety of ecosystems such as deserts and coral reefs. Each member of every kind of ecosystem plays a vital role in creating balance in nature. That is why it is important to maintain diversity.

Ways that deplete the ecosystems are mostly from humans. Some of these are illegal logging and hunting, water contamination, mining, commercialism, and the likes.
Fortunately, solutions that address the challenges of biodiversity are increasing. Individuals, companies, businesses, and countries are doing their share in saving ecosytems.

Just like the 1992 UN Conference on Environment and Development wherein the Convention on Biological Diversity came about - more than 100 countries participated in that convention to work hand in hand in reducing the loss of biodiversity.
