There is a Chinese proverb that states: “The best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago, the next best time is today.” In 2011, the United Nations reported that Africa, Latin America and the Caribbean had experienced a combined loss of 300 million hectares of forests from the year 1990 to present. Deforestation rates today are 8.5% higher than what they were 20 years ago and the loss of tropical rainforests has increased by up to 25% since 1990. These are only a few of the horrifying statistics of how we are destroying our Earth daily and reasons for why we need nature conservation. In the past 20 years, nature conservation has become a vital role to try and preserve the natural environment and save life on Earth as we know it.

Many countries rely on natural resources for inhabitants to form a living and to bring money into the country. Farming, fishing and most processed material industries rely on the environment. Farmers rely on the land around them to make a living. Agriculture is their main source of income and healthy surroundings are needed for agriculture to grow. Agriculture requires healthy soil, regular rain and clean air and water. Research has shown that habitat destruction has an effect on the annual rainfalls which agriculture relies on as a water source. Agriculture biodiversity is also important here. Agriculture biodiversity ensures protection against diseases agriculture products can acquire making them inedible. It also ensures healthy soil for agriculture products to grow in and ensures a habitat for pollinators and pest predators to live in which is a vital for agriculture to grow. Marine conservation is also important for economic reasons. Many Asian countries rely on fish as not only a source of income but as a food source for their inhibitors. For this reason, we need to conserve fishing areas where we can supply fish at a safe rate for those countries that need fish without the risk of marine extinction. Processed material industries also rely heavily on the environment. Examples of these industries are paper and timber industries. Paper industries use trees as their raw material to make paper as well as timber industries which cut down …show more content…
Ethical means to do what is right and what is wrong based on a mortality level. Animals, trees and other natural resources all have a right to live. Animals and plants have been around for a lot longer than humans have. All living things on Earth evolved here naturally and were intended to stay on the planet without the interference of humans. If we kill off these species, we have jeopardised an intention of nature. Once that species is gone, we will never see it again. It is irreplaceable. We also need to consider the impact of future generations. Not only should they to be able enjoy the amazing life forms on Earth, but how will the destruction of one species impact the world in 50 years’
