The earth is extremely important to human life. Eighty percent of human nutrition comes from plants, and forests, which make up thirty percent of the planet’s surface, are essential habitats for millions of species and significant supplies of clean water and air. But almost 7,000 animal and plant species have been traded illegally. In addition to destroying biodiversity, wildlife trafficking increases conflict, fosters corruption, and increases insecurity. Furthermore, Thirteen million hectares of forests are destroyed yearly, and 3.6 billion hectares have been desertified, which causes landslides and floods and contributes to climate change. Thus, it is extremely important to help lower the risks of natural disasters, control the temperature, and preserve the productivity of agricultural systems in order to preserve those ecosystems.
