is undeniable that wildlife habitats are being destroyed and whole species of plants and animals are disappearing. There are several causes of this alarming trend, but measures could certainly be taken to tackle the problem.
There are two main reasons why plants and animals are disappearing. Firstly, in all over the world population is increasing day by day and people need more space to live, so for living, in many parts of the world tree are being cut down to make way for farmland on which to grow crops and keep animals. The result of this is natural habitats are being destroyed and in some cases whole species of animal are becoming extinct. Secondly, human activity is also responsible for the destruction of aquatic life as domestic and industrial waste is pumped into rivers and seas. This chemical waste kills plants and fish, interrupting natural cycles and having a devastating effect on food chains.
