Biodiversity
－We are All Part of the Same Ecosystem－
The evolution of life on Earth has produced some 10 million different species. Although all the species share the basic characteristics of living organisms, each species has adapted in form and lifestyle to its own particular environmental circumstances. No species lives in isolation; our lives are intricately interwoven. We must never forget that we are but one part of the rich fabric of the ecosystem.
