Biodiversity supports everything in nature that we need to survive.
As world leaders gather in Montreal to discuss how to protect and restore our planet's biodiversity, these versatile resources for Primary and Secondary can help you bring the topic of biodiversity to life for your students.
Biodiversity is all the different kinds of life you’ll find in one area; the variety of animals, plants, fungi, and even micro-organisms like bacteria that make up our natural world. Each of these species and organisms work together in ecosystems, like an intricate web, to maintain balance and support life.
