Essay On Endangered Plants
Biodiversity
Imagine this: you step outside and feel the barren, rough, red Earth beneath your feet. There's not a
single plant in sight–no rustling of the leaves, no mighty towering trees to block the severe winds,
and the scorching heat of the sun searing upon your face because there's no shade. And when you
take a whiff of air, you feel nothing filling up the space inside your lungs, liberating your body's

(UFWS, 2004).

Flatrock Onion, Granite Rock Stonecrop, Indian Olive, Piedmont Barren Strawberry, and the Pool
Sprite Snorkelwort. We have one endangered plant: it is the Black–spored Quillwort (UFWS, 2004).
There are over 542 discrete approved ecosystem recovery plans. Some plans cover more than one
species while a few have different plans covering various parts of their ranges (TESS, 2004). One
organization is the Botanic Gardens Conservation International. It has just recently been added as a
