Question

3. In your opinion, which HIPPO activity is the greatest threat to biodiversity? Why? How are species directly impacted by this activity? What are 3 ways we can reduce the impact on species yet still provide for the needs of humans?

Answer 1

In my opinion the greatest threat is habitat loss among those HIPPO activities i.e. deforestation. It is greatest threat because human beings are slaughtering numerous tress forests and a lot of Woodlands for their personal greed to make building industry etc. For that reason a lot of species also including endangered species also ar losing their habitat and they became non capable of adaptation and tbey are losing their members. For losing their shelter ecosystem is becoming defected and the species are going to be extinct. The allele frequency is slowing down leading to huge threat to biodiversity.

If we combat against that we should follow some measures :

Human invasion will be strictly prohibited in the species enriched forests except any research or some projects.

We should focus on tree plantation and conservation of the endangered animals plants.

Human awareness should be enhanced via short camps, seminars etc
