How human affect the biodiversity?


Humans affect the biodiversity in an enormous such as serious damage to the
habitat of different species in a certain ecosystem which in turn causes the lack
of habitat and foods that ends to death of the specie. We took too many
resources in the environment that causes tremendous destruction like the global
warming, the unexpected climate change, and the increase of greenhouse gases
in the atmosphere. Humans are too greedy which turns a forest to a civilized
zone that kills a lot of species in a diversity which breaks the interdependence of
all the organisms in an ecosystem. The introduction of invasive or alien species
to the environment causes the well balance system breaks down. The alien
species dominates most of the species and took all the resources from them,
eventually leading to the death of the specie and to extinction.
Benefits of Biodiversity
The biodiversity is so important to the organisms because it provide the needs of
different organisms living in an environment. Greater species diversity ensures
natural sustainability for all life forms. Biodiversity is the most providing the
resources needed by an organism living in an ecosystem. In the video, it shows
that biodiversity is divided into ecosystem diversity, species diversity and genetic
diversity. An ecosystem can differ species based on the similarity of nature in
their existence. For example, the rainforest has millions of species on it because
it is most suitable in sustaining the needs of the organisms due to the rich
resources it has.
Biodiversity in the Philippines
It is generally accepted that the Philippines terrestrial and marine habitats contain
some of the richest biodiversities of flora and fauna, and its waters are
considered a part of the biodiversity Coral Triangle. Further, many of these
organisms are endemic to the Philippines. But even though Philippines uses all
their resources at any time. Philippines experience an alarming rate of
destruction of the important resources due to pollution, climate change, land
degradation, deforestation, overexploitation, and fragmentation. and at worst,
extinction. By these activities, the organism living in the Philippines rainforest
struggles in death rate and if it’s continued, it goes to extinction.
