Biodiversity, Climate Change, and Human Health

Linktv.org has many great videos on environmental issues. This video shares the threats that may arise to human health via medicine development because of loss of biodiversity. We get many of our medicines from the natural world. As we lose the species that produce these chemicals, we not only lose current medicine, we lose the chance to develop further medicines to help cure diseases. This is another page in the document we call "Why Climate Change, Global Warming, and Habitat Loss are Bad".
