Detailed explanation-1: -Biodiversity plays a crucial role in human nutrition through its influence on world food production, as it ensures the sustainable productivity of soils and provides the genetic resources for all crops, livestock, and marine species harvested for food.
Detailed explanation-2: -Without biodiversity, our entire support system for human, as well as animal life, would collapse. We rely on nature to provide us with food and clean water, for a lot of medicines, and to prevent flooding and other extreme weather effects.
Detailed explanation-3: -Increased risk of infectious disease Biodiversity loss and an increasing rate of wildlife–human contacts all contribute to increasing risks of infectious disease. As a result of human actions, wild animals are shifting their geographical reach and moving ever closer to humans and livestock.
