In this program, a student explores biodiversity with the help of academic experts and learns why all parts of an ecosystem are important—even the mosquitoes. Focusing on biodiversity in Australia, the video examines the negative impact of European farming techniques on the continent’s fragile natural environments; it also looks at Australia’s high rate of mammal extinction and prevalence of invasive species as areas of concern to environmentalists. Finally, viewers are presented with examples of what individuals and groups can do to conserve biodiversity. A viewable/printable worksheet is available online. (23 minutes)
