  importance of biodiversity

  I grew up on small islands in the Federated States of Micronesia and knows very well the meaning of subsistence survival- the importance of our ocean resources and forests to our very survival. Unfortunately,the convenience of shopping for food on supermarket shelves in most parts of the world today is not helping the need to have an intimate relationship with our natural resources. Companies which are mass producing and distribuiting food around the world should play a larger role in corporate good citizenship to help this cause. After all, without food security through crop diversity, we will be in trouble. Let us all play our small individual roles as well.
