ABSTRACT

Biodiversity and ecosystems are intricately linked, forming the foundation of life on Earth. Biodiversity plays a crucial role in maintaining ecosystem stability, resilience, and functionality, providing essential services such as nutrient cycling, climate regulation, and food security. However, increasing anthropogenic pressures, including habitat destruction, climate change, pollution, and invasive species, have led to significant biodiversity loss, threatening ecological balance. This paper explores the importance of biodiversity in sustaining ecosystems, the major threats it faces, and conservation strategies to mitigate biodiversity decline. A review of recent research highlights the necessity of conservation efforts, including habitat restoration, policy interventions, and community involvement, in preserving biodiversity. Furthermore, the role of technological advancements and international cooperation in biodiversity conservation is discussed. Addressing biodiversity loss requires urgent and coordinated global action to ensure the long-term health and sustainability of ecosystems.
