Biodiversity is the natural biological capital of the earth and represents important opportunities for all nations. It provides goods and services which support human livelihood. The protection of these assets, and their sustainable exploitation offer the means by which humanity can hope to sustain his own well being. Losing of genes within species, species within ecosystems and ecosystems within regions result into disturbances within the environment and reduces the benefits that the system can supply. The United Nations Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) which came into effect at the Earth's Summit in Rio de Jeneiro in June 1992 defines Biological Diversity as "the variability among living organisms from all sources including inter alia, terrestrial, marine and other aquatic ecosystems and the ecological complexes of which they are part;' this includes diversity within species; between species and ecosystems."
