why is the environment so important?
Our life-support system’s health is maintained by all the species that make-up the biosphere—from the smallest to the largest (our biodiversity). The survival of all these species is interconnected and dependent on each other. Bacteria and insects break down organic material to produce soil and nutrients so plants can grow. Plants provide oxygen and food for animals and many other benefits. Bees, other insects, and animals pollinate the plants so they can reproduce and keep the cycle going. They also maintain the health of plants and spread their seeds. The actual processes that take place between species and the environment are extremely complex and vulnerable. If humanity causes the extinction of one species—it’s really the extinction of many species and the decline of our life-support system for ourselves and future generations. God’s gift must not be taken for granted—it must be cared for. If not, humanity will face the grim consequences of its actions. Humanity has neglected to fa

Only a tiny fraction of pristine wilderness remains in the U.S. and other parts of the world, yet, politicians and corporations continue to demand 3% here and 2% there and over the course of just a few decades the wilderness is lostan area that took nature millions of years to create… Our life-support system’s health is maintained by all the species that make-up the biospherefrom the smallest to the largest (our biodiversity).
