29 December - World Biological Diversity Day by Miron Costin

The United Nations has proclaimed May 22 The International Day for Biological Diversity (IDB) to increase understanding and awareness of biodiversity issues. When first created by the Second Committee of the UN General Assembly in late 1993, 29 December (the date of entry into force of the Convention of Biological Diversity), was designated The International Day for Biological Diversity. In December 2000, the UN General Assembly adopted 22 May as IDB, to commemorate the adoption of the text of the Convention on 22 May 1992 by the Nairobi Final Act of the Conference for the Adoption of the Agreed Text of the Convention on Biological Diversity.

Biodiversity generally refers to the variety and variability of life on Earth. According to the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP), biodiversity typically measures variation at the genetic, species, and ecosystem level.^[1] Terrestrial biodiversity tends to be greater near the equator,^[2] which seems to be the result of the warm climate and high primary productivity.^[3] Biodiversity is not distributed evenly on Earth, and is richest in the tropics

The International Day for Biological Diversity falls within the scope of the UN Post-2015 Development Agenda's Sustainable Development Goals. In this larger initiative of international cooperation, the topic of biodiversity concerns stakeholders in sustainable agriculture; desertification, land degradation and drought; water and sanitation

The main goal is to raise public awareness of the importance of conserving and sustainable use of biological diversity as well as of the fair sharing of resources deriving from its use.

This was partly done because it was difficult for many countries to plan and carry out suitable celebrations for the date of 29 December, given the number of holidays that coincide around that time of year.

Biodiversity helps us in innumerable ways, which we do not even notice. She provides us with food, medicine and clothing.

The term biodiversity describes the entire range of variability of living organisms within an ecological complex. Biodiversity embraces the diversity of the ecosystem and the genetic diversity of a species in this ecosystem.

Much of the Earth's biodiversity is concentrated in the tropics. Some scientists estimate that 50 percent of all species on the planet are found in tropical rainforests that comprise only 6 to 7 percent of the Earth's land surface. Given the rapid rate at which tropical rainforests are being cut, it is estimated that up to 20 percent of the Earth's biodiversity may become extinct in our lifetime!
