Facts about Endangered Plants

Hey dear community, first of all I would like to welcome you all to my new post and hope you all had a day full of positive experiences! In this post I would like to address an important topic that is associated with nature and hope you can learn something new.

Here you can see pictures of Snake's head as well as Pasque flower and both species have one thing in common and are becoming increasingly rare and depending on the country the numbers of endangered plants have taken on frightening dimensions and in the average about a third to a fifth of all plants are threatened with extinction. These rapid dying of species leads to the fact that plants disappear completely from the scene every day and this leads to the fact that a reaction often occurs and thus insects are also threatened and some species have focused specifically on certain plants and if the plants should die out, insects also have a huge problem and the resulting climate changes are also a problem for the entire planet. Plants are an important basis of life and form one of the largest biomasses on this earth and everyone should definitely look at the ever-growing species extinction and there are various factors that lead to this chain reaction and because the change or disappearance of important habitats it is assumed that this problem should grow even more in the future. Plants are indispensable when it comes to photosynthesis, which also describes the ability to convert energy with the help of the sun and this creates results which are indispensable for life. In order to be able to better trace this problem, there are red lists in some countries which are intended to document the threatened plants and a huge problem are often invasive neotypes that tend to spread strongly and thus increasingly displace the native plants. Invasive neotypes are also naturalized plants from other countries which pose a danger to the native ones and also the ever-growing intervention by humans plays an enormous role and each individual is asked to contribute to counteract this ever-growing problem.

Thank you very much for stopping by and I hope you could learn something new about nature! I captured these pictures with my Camera Sony Alpha 6000 plus 55-210 mm lens.
