How could the loss of biodiversity affect humans?
Answer (2)
**Answer: **Biodiversity affects humans in terms of natural resources and ecosystem services. Biodiversity is a foundational issue for all life on planet earth. Loss of Biodiversity could affect humans. Us humans depend on nature to feed ourselves, to dress up, and in many ways in our daily routine. Here I only provide some examples of all that will happenand has been already happening.
If there is loss of biodiversity, for example fresh water will be reduced; in fact it has been reduced over the years.
The type of food we eat will be each time more limited. We won´t have a high exposition to different flavors, textures and high quality of food. Inestead, we will be more exposed to eat less quality food and food that has suffered transformation.
Also, there will be less and less contact with nature. As it happens now a days, people are dressing up inpetroleum based clothing, are living lifes away from nature, are not being exposed to clean air. ;
The loss of biodiversity impacts humans by disrupting essential ecosystem services, compromising food security, and threatening medicinal resources. Additionally, it can adversely affect cultural identities and worsen climate change. Overall, the decline in biodiversity diminishes the quality of life for humans.
