The Dhaka Times Desk The World Wildlife Fund (WWF) reports that wildlife populations around the world have declined by two-thirds over the past 50 years.
Wildlife and fish populations have declined by more than two-thirds during this period due to the expansion of human consumption and economic activity, according to a recent report.
This condition is also referred to as a major threat to nature. People are urged to come forward to protect nature in their own needs.
WWF reports that over the past 50 years, three-quarters of land and 40 percent of oceans have been severely damaged. Due to which the damage to the environment and nature has happened in a much faster time. This has also had an inexplicable impact on human health and the existence of wildlife.
According to a report by The Living Planet Index, more than 4,000 vertebrates have declined by more than 68 percent between 1970-2016 due to deforestation and agricultural expansion.
It is feared that if the rate of reduction of wildlife continues and the presence of humans moves closer to wildlife, there may be a threat of various types of epidemics in the future.
The 13th edition of the 2020 Living Planet Report was jointly produced by WWF and the Zoological Society of London.
WWF International Director General Marco Lambertini told AFP that the world's biodiversity has decreased greatly since 1970.
It has been said, “For the past thirty years we have been focusing on biodiversity. The speed of decline is increasing. It is gradually moving towards the wrong path. As of 2016, wildlife was reported to have declined by 60 percent. Now it stands at 70 percent.”
