Biological diversity, or biodiversity, encompasses the variety of life at all levels of organization, from genetic diversity within a species to diversity within entire regions or ecosystems. Biodiversity is increasingly recognized as critical to human life, for example the diversity of insect and avian
pollinators is crucial to global agricultural productivity, ensuring plants produce harvestable crops for human use. Although biodiversity is critical to
the balance of life on Earth, more species are becoming, threatened, endangered, or extinct due man's activities.
Can you identify the man-related activities that are contributing to the loss of biodiversity?
