Terrestrial Environments

Terrestrial environments include land masses like mountains, rivers, valleys, and deserts, as well as other ecosystems like forests, wetlands, and grasslands. They are home to diverse and abundant flora and fauna and play an important role in the global carbon cycle. They provide vital resources for humans, such as fresh water, timber, and food. Terrestrial environments are affected by numerous human activities, such as deforestation, climate change, and pollution. Conservation efforts are therefore essential to protect these precious ecosystems and the species that depend on them.
