Summary: Biodiversity describes all the different wildlife that exists on our planet. How humans damage biodiversity → the way we use land often results in the removal of natural habitats and the pollution of existing ones. Protecting freshwater biodiversity → letting rivers slow more naturally is just one example that helps protect freshwater biodiversity. Freshwater species→ from fish and plants, to mammals and birds, there are many organisms that call these places home. Why biodiversity Is Important → a biodiverse ecosystem is a strong ecosystem, and we rely on ecosystems for so many parts of life. Protecting biodiversity helps in the fight against climate change.
