More About biodiversity

Biodiversity has been here for a long time. It helps all living things. Each kind of life has a role. Some help make food, and some help clean air.

We see biodiversity every day. The trees give us shade. The birds sing in the morning. All these things help us feel good.

In the future, we need to keep biodiversity safe. If we lose it, our world can change. We must care for all life!
