Ecological issues refer to problems that affect the environment and the balance of ecosystems. These issues include pollution, deforestation, climate change, and loss of biodiversity. Pollution can harm air, water, and soil quality, while deforestation leads to habitat loss for many species. Climate change, driven by greenhouse gas emissions, results in rising temperatures and extreme weather events. This affects ecosystems and can lead to the extinction of species. Additionally, the loss of biodiversity reduces the resilience of ecosystems, making them less able to adapt to changes and threats, such as invasive species and habitat destruction.
