All the natural resources
and ecosystems need to work together as a whole-earth regeneration system, to produce the oxygen, fresh
water, food, and proper temperature in the atmosphere that sustains our lives. Why get in a big uproar about a species of tiny frogs, or a
coral reef, or a flowering plant? They don't provide us with oxygen, fresh water,
food or the proper temperature.
Every single resource, every species - all have
important functions in the preservation, recycling and regeneration of life on Earth.
Also, much of our medicine has come from plants and
animals. There are many more species we haven't even identified (discovered) yet that will
provide cures for disease and other discoveries to make our lives better. The preservation of our biological diversity and our
natural resources will help ensure the continuation of life on our planet. |
