Description

This abstract reveal that the world is facing a biodiversity extinction crisis, which is being intensified by the impacts of climate change. The challenges of climate change are significant, extending beyond the visible effects of melting ice caps and rising sea levels. For the past two decades, this issue has consistently held a critical place on the international agenda, recognized alongside desertification, soil degradation, and biodiversity loss as a primary global environmental threat. While climate change has gained considerable attention in the media and public discourse, the concurrent danger of biodiversity loss remains inadequately understood. The ongoing biodiversity extinction crisis is closely linked to climate change, and this detailed research article emphasizes the importance of addressing both crises collaboratively and comprehensively. The loss of biodiversity is not only a moral and environmental concern; it has significant economic and public health implications as well. It influences resource availability, affects disease transmission risks, and increases vulnerability to environmental disasters. The findings of this research highlight the need for enhanced public understanding and integrated strategies to safeguard the global environment and its diverse ecosystems effectively.
