"biodiversity-loss"

As long as nature remains imagined as an endlessly giving mother, humanity may continue to mistake exploitation for affection

A study in Brazil's Atlantic Forest has found that biodiversity loss and human expansion may be driving mosquitoes to feed more on humans, raising the risk of disease transmission as animals disappear and insects move closer to human settlements

A global study finds extreme heat has cut tropical bird populations by 25–38% since 1950, posing a greater threat than habitat loss. Rising heatwaves cause fatal stress, breeding failures, and dehydration, underscoring urgent action on climate change and biodiversity conservation
