Biodiversity is the variety of life, the rich assembly of living things in the natural world.
Biodiversity includes all living things and their environments, from the tiniest flying insect to the tallest tree,
from open expanses of coastline to the smallest urban garden.
Biodiversity is found everywhere. We are part if biodiversity and depend on it for our quality of life.
Biodiversity involves everyone, it supports us, it is our vital for our survival.
