Global biodiversity

Global biodiversity means the amount of different plants and animals in the world. It includes everything from the tiniest insect to the largest whale. Having a lot of different species helps keep our environment healthy and make sure there is enough food and other resources for all living things. Unfortunately, as human activities increase, global biodiversity is decreasing, which means our world is becoming less healthy and less diverse. We need to make changes to keep our planet and its wildlife healthy.
