Biodiversity is essentially the diversity of species on our planet. Climate changes have massive effects on this diversity, many of which are long term and potentially harmful. Most people are aware of nature and how important it is to conserve it. However, it's maintenance is often pushed aside to make room for profit or short term benefit of humans. As most species depend upon one another, it is important to look out for all elements of nature, no matter how small. According to greenfacts.org, population changes can also affect our biodiversity. "Over the last 40 years our planet's population has doubled which has caused pressure on ecosystems through the city dweller's demand for more food and energy" (http://www.greenfacts.org/en/biodiversity/l-2/4-causes-desertification.htm#0).
I will add more to this and encourage others to converse or comment to increase awareness on the topic.

What for?
I have met many people in my life that are amazing and know so much about their career industry or hobbies. It is great to listen to someone that knows what they are talking about. I however, am not like that. I feel like I am more interested in knowing a little about everything than a lot about one or a few things. It seems like it is useful to learn more and to socialize, if you are somewhat familiar with at least some aspect of all subjects. So I decided to put all my facts and info into a convenient spot for others who may want to know what I do or who may even just want to expand or correct my knowledge. I am open to conversation and happy to share or learn from others.
