Now the question is why Biodiversity is chosen as World Environment day 2020 theme?
Human is the only living kind on the earth who has
been caused for all environment issues. We are at stage of mass extinction where
more than 1 million species may be wiped out from the surface of planet within
next 10 years.
In last 50 years, wildlife has declined on
average by 60 percent and at this rate species are disappearing hundreds of times
faster than the average speed of the past 10 million years.
Now if
we talk about the Oceans, more than two third area of oceans are impacted by
human activities. Unsustainable use of natural resources is the major cause of environmental
crisis.
More than 32 million hectare of forest has been
disappeared between 2010 and 2015. And we have lost over one third of total
forest cover till now.
If we continuously move on this path, than in
coming few years we will face very severe environmental crisis around the
world. Our existence and quality of life depends upon nature.
Nature provides us all the things such as food,
fiber, energy, materials and bio-energy, which are necessary for our life. Nature
sustains quality of air, soil and fresh water for human needs. But our food system
becomes the major reason for climate change, biodiversity losses, soil and
water pollution and water scarcity.
Most of the environment losses are the result
of rapid human population growth, unsustainable production and over consumption
of natural resources.
So to save our nature, it is important to
reverse the loss of biodiversity and sustaining a healthy planet. Year 2020 is critical for biodiversity and
there is need for crucial decisions for people and planate in order to meet the
goal set for 2050 by world leaders.
The goal for 2050 will only be possible unless
we stop the loss of biodiversity by 2030 by restoring nature and reversing
biodiversity losses.
So to year 2020 is a significant year to take
strong actions for conservation of nature and biodiversity.
