Species biodiversity is in danger. That said, reader, we don't explain anything new to you, because we know that there are fewer and fewer species on our planet. The bad situation of biodiversity in the Amazon has had a bad impact, but did you know that in Europe the problem is increasingly serious? To this conclusion comes the First Congress of Wild Plants held in Paris.

You can clarify the following data: Of the 12,000 species of related wild plants in Europe, 2,400 are in danger of extinction. On the other hand, when pointing out the reasons for the worrying situation, the experts who participated in the Congress agreed: human activity and exploitation without measures are the ones that threaten this European treasure. Very important.
