Biodiversity

In this year, 2010, the International Year of Biodiversity, the statistics are alarming...

More than 11,000 plant and animal species are threatened with extinction in the short term.

The number of endangered species increased by 40 percent between 1996 and 2004.

The world's ecosystems and main biological cycles, such as the water cycle, are badly affected and could threaten the survival of the human species.
