Importance of Biodiversity
When a species is taken from a biodiversity pool, the food chain is interrupted. The cascading effect can spread to other species and ultimately to us and to our quality of life. Take for example, the decline of the bee population around the world. The potential consequences are devastating for the ecosystem. Without bees, pollination would be interrupted, preventing floral growth, which results in reducing food and habitats for animals.
To ensure the sustainability of San Luis Rey Watershed biodiversity, all conservation efforts should start at the local level, that means you and me. So instead of killing the bees that have their hives in the wrong place, we can move them to a better and more appreciated area such as a farm or a ranch.
