Why we need biodiversity



Soils are kept healthy, and therefore productive, by microbes, worms, insects and all manner of burrowing animals. They turn decaying plant and animal matter into soil enriching material. Plants grow in soil and put oxygen into the air for us to breathe.

Plants, as well as tiny organisms, filter our water. Plants feed us, and from some plants cloth is made that clothes us. Plants feed animals which in turn are used by us, eaten for food or their fleece made into cloth or yarn to clothe us. Medicines are made from plants. Birds and insects spread seeds and pollen which helps plants reproduce.

Biodiversity feeds and clothes us, provides us shelter, clean air and water. It is an essential part of our lives. If we destroy the plants and animals that are part of the biodiversity, then we lose those benefits they provide. There are an estimated 10 to 100 million species of living things on earth. Today, humans are destroying species faster than at other time in earth's history. It has been estimated by scientists that approximately 8 species an hour, 70,000 a year, are being destroyed.
