More on Extinction
There are two types of extinction: background extinction, which
are species that simply disappear as the planet cannot sustain all
life and some species have to go; and mass extinction, which is
a widespread event that wiped out over 50% of all living
organisms. The number of dinosaur extinctions are examples of
mass extinction.
Conservation vs. Preservation
Conservation and preservation are synonymous, with conservation
aiming to protect natural resources from human activities. When
nature is to be protected from humans, that is preservation. The
Philippines, a biodiversity hotspot, faces threats like deforestation,
unsustainable fishing practices, and illegal wildlife trafficking. In
2016, Conservation International and USAID launched the Protect
Wildlife Project, promoting conservation efforts with local
communities.
Population
The Philippines has a population of 110 million in the
year 2020, spread across 7,100 islands, with Manila
having an estimated 13,923,452 people. As the 7th most
populated country in Asia and 13th globally, the country
is densely populated. In ecology, population is defined
byNture.com as “a group of individuals of the same
species living and interbreeding within given area.
Population ecology studies the structure and interactions
of populations over time.
