We all have heard the term biodiversity before, but have any of us ever knew what the term meant? What biodiversity actually the variety of life in the world or in a particular habitat or ecosystem. Surprisingly a lot of things affect it, especially human activity. Now, you may be thinking that we don’t do THAT much to affect the environment when in reality, we are the number one thing that is making biodiversity slowly go away. We tend to have the thought process that everything in the world is ours. Everything we do disrupts the nature around us. We build houses that take away animals protection, and bring in animals that do not belong that take out species. Because of us, we are slowly killing off many species such as birds. If we don’t change the way that we are acting soon then soon we will run out of a species. Then if we run out of a species, others will soon follow until there is no more. This is why we need to be more considerate of everything around us. The world doesn’t revolve around humans.
These are just some of the many species of birds now gone because of us.
