When biodiversity is lost, an increase in the spreading of diseases takes place, which scientists think, is for the reason that some species are better in controlling the transmission of diseases. Current extraordinary deteriorations in biodiversity decrease the ability of ecological societies to deliver numerous essential ecosystem services. Here we analyze evidence that decreased
biodiversity affects the communication of contagious diseases of humans’ other animals and plants.
Habitat Loss And Spread Of Contagious Diseases
However, increasing evidence shows that biodiversity loss,normally increases the transmission of various diseases. Alterations in the human social organization have led to the occurrence of human infections, for example, with the development of cities and colonies during the industrial progression and from hunting and gathering to agriculture have become major factors to habitat loss and the spread infectious diseases.
Globalization and ecological disorders are reasons for recent emergence and reemergence of contagious diseases. It is speculating that deforestation, habitat destruction, and loss of biodiversity linked with biotic homogenization can enhance the spread of contagious and infectious diseases affecting humans.
The visible connection between transmittable disease and biotic homogenization is responsible for many transmittable and infectious diseases.
Biodiversity is the basic structure that maintains all life. Our oceans are suffering from the immense pressure of plastic. Life on our beaches and oceans is suffocating because of oil spills and plastic pollution.
Rain forests are being lost rapidly to make land clear for agriculture. These things have a major contribution to the loss of biodiversity and the extinction of several species.
For many years these issues have resulted in the exploitation of our planet by human beings and are responsible to be causing the sixth extinct period, that the planet is presently experiencing.
Humans damaged the ecosystem by removing the forests,killing animals or caging them, and transporting them to humans for eating and making medicines. Ultimately, viruses lost their hosts and start looking for new hosts. As a result, these viruses eventually transfer to human beings.
Loss Of Biodiversity And COVID19
Destruction of biodiversity and habitat loss lead to a situation for new viruses and diseases such as COVID-19. All the people from the pandemic of COVID19 must understand that either directly or indirectly biodiversity is of intrinsic value and nature and ecosystems are associated to corporate activity.
Organizations and companies must act now to prevent further habitat and extinction loss before it’s too late. The planet’s future is in our hands but yet we have not done anything good to this planet except destruction.
Now everyone must take strict action in saving the planet instantly. Let’s take a start from you and come forward to stop biodiversity and habitat loss and stop plastic pollution from racking our beaches and have a healthy ocean that delights its sustain for generations to come. We can make a change but we must act fast!
