Vedclass · Answer

(C) Conservationists argue that the loss of biodiversity is a critical issue because biodiversity provides essential economic,ecological,and aesthetic benefits to humanity. While immediate conservation actions may seem expensive,the long-term cost of inaction—including the loss of ecosystem services like pollination,water purification,and climate regulation—would be far greater. Therefore,it is economically and ecologically more prudent to invest in conservation now to prevent further degradation and destruction of habitats,ensuring that biodiversity is preserved for future generations.
