Memory Biodiversity and conservationVersión en línea Taking care of natural resources is crucial to ensure sustainability, por alex velasco What is a threatened species and an endangered species? Give five examples of each. To prevent damage, we can promote sustainable practices, reduce pollution, protect habitats, recycle, and use resources responsibly to maintain ecological balance. What are natural resources, and how are they classified? What can we do to prevent modification or decrease in an ecosystem? Which species have gone extinct in the last 50 years? Mention 5 of them. Taking care of natural resources is crucial to ensure sustainability, protect ecosystems, and support human and wildlife survival by avoiding depletion and environmental harm. Threatened species: Giant panda, Asian elephant, sea otter, snow leopard, African penguin. • Endangered species: Tiger, orangutan, black rhinoceros, hawksbill turtle, blue whale. Species that have gone extinct in recent decades include the western black rhinoceros, baiji dolphin, golden toad, Pinta Island tortoise, and Spix's macaw. Changes or reductions in resources can lead to imbalances, endangering species, reducing biodiversity, and destabilizing ecosystems, which can affect all living beings. Educate the community on conservation, reduce waste, promote recycling, protect natural habitats, and support policies that prioritize environmental sustainability. What is biodiversity, and why is it important to preserve it? What happens if resources modify or decrease in an ecosystem? What are the mega-diverse countries, and why are they mega-diverse? Biodiversity is the variety of life on Earth, including different species, ecosystems, and genetic diversity. What is the importance of taking care of natural resources? What are the factors that cause the loss of resources and biodiversity? Organizations working on species preservation include WWF (World Wildlife Fund), Greenpeace, IUCN Conservation International, and The Nature Conservancy. Mega-diverse countries include Brazil, Colombia, Mexico, Indonesia, and Australia. They are called mega-diverse because they have a high number of endemic species and diverse ecosystems. They are classified as renewable (can be replenished, like solar energy) and non-renewable (finite resources, like fossil fuels). Factors include deforestation, pollution, climate change, habitat destruction, over-exploitation of resources, and invasive species, all of which disrupt ecosystems and threaten specie Organizations dedicated to the preservation of species. What are your recommendations to the community to preserve biodiversity?
