Diversity

What is diversity?
Diversity (or biodiversity) is the variation within and between living things. It is measured on many levels; from genetic variation to differences between individuals within populations to differences among species and among ecosystems.

You need many species to maintain a productive natural ecosystem.

Diversity affects the amount of resources we can use sustainably, because it influences ecosystem health, resilience and productivity. Taking too much from an ecosystem decreases diversity and sustainability.
