BIODIVERSITY LOSS IN INDIA

Biodiversity loss is one of the most critical environmental issues nowadays. Urbanization, the main driver of global environmental change, is closely associated with the future of biodiversity. Although management strategies for the conservation of biodiversity have been proposed at national and international levels, there is hardly any synchronization between them, and adding to it, there is limited concord on the conservation priorities. Although biological extinction is a natural phenomenon, human intervention has accelerated the extinction rates to a large extent. Habitat destruction, poaching, the introduction of invasive species, pollution, industrialization, agricultural practices, the divergence of wetlands and forests to croplands, and urban sprawling have become the prominent causes of human-driven species extinction. Biodiversity loss has many direct and indirect impacts on earning, livelihood, and human health. Several laws and policies have been institutionalized by the Government of India, but their stringent implementation has not been witnessed. Irrespective of the hurdles faced in curbing biodiversity loss, the situation may take a detour with active public participation. Developing and implementing solutions for these causes of biodiversity loss will relieve the pressure on species and maintain the proper functioning of an ecosystem and its services.
