Discussion7: For the discussion topic related to Threats to Biodiversity, research some information about threats to biodiversity and discuss: · 2 major threats to biodiversity today. · Where do these threats come from? Your main response should be a minimum of 150 words (more is OK). You must also post a minimum of one significant reply to a classmate's post that contributes to their learning by Friday, 11:59 pm. The reply should be a minimum of 100 words. Response to below discussion: Britt The two main threats to biodiversity today are habitat loss and pollution. Our environments are seriously threatened by pollution. Pollution in the air, water, soil, and plastics have all have a negative impact on biodiversity. As you travel down the highways, you will see that plastic bottles and wrappers are all over the place, and factory emissions are contaminating the air with ammonia, dust, and soot. Animals suffering from respiratory distress from air pollution also have lower reproductive rates, which reduces biodiversity. In addition to polluting our air, greenhouse gases cause climate change, which destroys hundreds of coral reefs in our oceans. Our fish die from water contamination, which results in a decline in fish diversity. Another significant problem with biodiversity is habitat loss. Many species become extinct due to habitat loss. To develop another structure or establishment, this act entails razinf forests and habitats. Because they are removing such a large number of species from their habitats, this has a significant negative impact on biodiversity. Additionally, some species could become extinct completely as a result of this. These dangers are posed by people and companies that want to build more buildings and tear down forests and habitats to do so. References: Hanski, I. (2011).
