In many countries, the number of plants and animals is declining. Why is this? What should be done to solve?

It is apparent that the

population

of wildlife species is currently in a dangerous state.

This

may be because of overpopulation which could be addressed by ways of conservation and education. It should be acknowledged that many land sites are being used up

due to

the growth of the human

population

.

In other words

,

this

fuels deforestation, in order to adapt to the greater demand for accommodation and food. Plain fields which are taken from the habitat of exotic

animals

, and

also

plants, could

then

be utilized for agricultural reasons,

such

as increasing crop yields, or become residential areas.

As a result

,

this

would pose detrimental effects on the ecology and biodiversity, putting thousands of natural species to the brink of extinction. To tackle

this

problem, governments and their residents should place more of an emphasis on preserving wildlife

as well as

restoration. By establishing protected areas,

such

as national parks, and running breeding campaigns to encourage the reproduction of endangered

animals

, people could effectively safeguard the

population

of plants and

animals

from being reduced. Take pandas, the national feature of China as an example.

Due to

the fact that the local government is contributing to restoring the number of these endangered species,

for instance

, by publishing new projects in conservation work, the pandas'

population

witnessed a dramatic increase in recent years. In brief, the reduced number of plants and

animals

is primarily caused by overpopulation. To solve

this

urgent problem, educational projects and protected programs should be accomplished by local authorities.
