It is timefor biodiversity
All animals, plants and fungi live together in your garden. They can’t exist without each other. We call this biodiversity. You can imagine it as a tower, made out of blocks. If you take out too many blocks, the tower will fall down. All life is dependent on other lives. Without flowers there are no bees, without trees there are no monkeys and without plankton there is no fish. We, as humans, are also part of this tower, which is why we should be careful with nature. The tower is already shaking. We can still do something: it is time for biodiversity!
