Some people say that the main environmental problem of our time is the loss of particular species of plants and animals. Others say that there are more important environmental problems. Discuss both these views and give your own opinion.

, the loss of biodiversity will lead to severe consequences,
such
as starvation of people and mass death of living organisms. Humans rely on these main components of nature for food, medicine, building materials and their availability as products. Unfortunately, it threatens global food security and the development of new drugs to avoid diseases. Even if ecosystems can recover, in case of complete loss of populations,
as a result
of which the risk of extinction of certain
species
increases, ecological sustainability will be disrupted, and it will cease to be what it used to be.
On the other hand

problems
and affects the entire existence of our planet. Floods, melting glaciers, forest fires, droughts are consequences of global warming, which can
