While we do have estimates of the number of species we currently have, it is still in fact far from the actual number of species that totally exist. Even though a lot of explorations and studies have been made in the past years, a huge amount remains unaccounted. Thus, how can we conserve if we do not know what we have? We could be losing important species without our knowledge.
Projections have also been laid out that human population will still increase at an alarming rate. And each individual added entails additional requirement and use of resources, furthering the pressure that our ecosystems experience today. However, given also that our knowledge of how the ecosystem functions, how dynamic it is also improve, and with the deeper realization of the role we need to play to conserve and restore our natural resources, what do you think will happen to biodiversity in the next 50 years?
