Global distribution of biodiversity
Explore how life is found almost everywhere on Earth, but is not distributed evenly.
And learn why the clumped distributions of species are the result of a wide variety of both natural and human-driven factors.

How does conservation affect biodiversity?
Biodiversity is a measure of how many different species live in an ecosystem.
Human activities like changing land use, deforestation and peat bog destruction reduce this.
The increase in the human population and waste it produces, deforestation, peat bog destruction and global warming are all reducing biodiversity.
Conservation helps reverse this.

How does human interaction affect biodiversity GCSE Bitesize biology?
Activities that create air and water pollution, are reducing biodiversity in many ecosystems.
Conservation of species and habitats by charities, governments and individuals helps to maintain the range of biodiversity.
Revise biodiversity and the effect of human interaction on ecosystems for GCSE Bitesize Biology, AQA.

Protecting biodiversity
Research, education, individual action, and public policy all have important roles to play in protecting biodiversity.
That means there's a lot you, personally, can do to preserve species and ecosystems - whoever you may be, and wherever you may live! This content is provided by the California Academy of Sciences.
,
Threats to biodiversity
Examine the local and global threats to biodiversity that are caused by human activities.
Many of the negative impacts start as regional, but easily add up to affect the entire planet.

Why is conservation important?
Human activities like changing land use, deforestation and peat bog destruction reduce this.
Although many people agree that conservation is important because of its many benefits to the world that we live in, there are challenges to be overcome.
Maintaining biodiversity - more species can survive as many species rely on others for survival.
