The core threats to biodiversity are human population growth and unsustainable resource use.

Climate change is predicted to be a significant cause of extinctions in the coming century.

Here are some examples:

1. Human Activities and Loss of Habitat

2. Deforestation

3. Desertification

4. Marine Environment

5. Increasing Wildlife Trade

6. Climate Change
