What is biodiversity? Mention the implications of the loss of biodiversity.
'Biological diversity' means the variability among living organisms from all sources including, inter alia, terrestrial, marine and other aquatic ecosystems and the ecological complexes of which they are a part; this includes diversity within species, between species and of ecosystems.
Every ecosystem on earth needs biodiversity and without it the whole web of life that includes us humans will collapse. Species provide important resources so we can survive. This is biodiversity in action. The ocean and biodiversity need each other without biodiversity the ocean would be murky with no sign of life.
