Humans are fully dependent on Earth’s ecosystems and the services that they provide, such as food, clean water, disease regulation, climate regulation, spiritual fulfillment, and aesthetic enjoyment.

We depend upon "ecosystem services" provided by nature for free. Services like freshwater, soil, clean air, fisheries and food. But population growth, changing diets, urbanisation and many other issues are damaging ecosystems and causing biodiversity to decline, this loss has an impact on us all. It affects our health, wellbeing and livelihood.
