It is estimated that the Earth is losing approximately 27,000 species per year. The cause of biodiversity loss is largely due to the explosion in human population.

The shrinking of the biodiversity would have a huge impact on lives of human. Biodiversity provides the necessity that makes life possible. It provides fresh water, clean air and nutrients.

The greenhouse effect has caused the temperature to rise unnaturally and dramatically. Scientists blame it for an increase in the Earth's surface temperature of about 0.6 Celsius degrees (about 1 Fahrenheit degree) over the last nearly 100 years. Without remedial measures, many scientists fear global temperature will rise 1.4 to 5.8 Celsius degrees (2.5 to 10.4 Fahrenheit degrees) by 2100. The warmer temperature could melt polar icecaps which would cause the sea level to rise and lands to sink. Lots of animal would be unable to survive in warmer temperature. Scientists have warned that
