Life on the Brink

Nature keeps creating more splendor, more living space, more ways of doing things; that's biodiversity. It's an endlessly inventive process--it's creation. When we talk about species being lost to us, we are not only losing individual things, we are losing a creative force from our lives. We lose the chance of seeing new species and more diversity.
