Climate change
has an impact on biodiversity at multiple levels, including species distribution, population dynamics, community structure, and ecosystem function.
Pollution
When we think of pollution, we often think of car exhaust fumes billowing into the atmosphere, but biodiversity is also impacted by noise pollution and light pollution.
habitat destruction
Soil pollution and changes in its uses as a result of activities such as deforestation have a negative impact on ecosystems and the species that inhabit them.
According to the United Nations Development Programme, invasive alien species are the world's second leading cause of biodiversity loss (UNDP). They prey on native species, compete for food, hybridize with them, introduce parasites and diseases, and so on.
