Shocking declines in bird populations are taking place around the world.Loss of natural habitats is cited as the key threat to bird biodiversity.Climate change is identified as a possible driver of bird population declines.
We are now witnessing the first signs of a new wave of extinctions of continentally distributed bird species,"says lead author Alexander Lees,senior lecturer at Manchester Metropolitan University in the United Kingdom."Bird diversity peaks globally in the tropics and it is there that we also find the highest number of threatened species."
The study says about48%of existing bird species worldwide are known or suspected to be undergoing population declines.Populations are stable for39%of species.Only6%are showing increasing population trends,and the status of7%is still unknown.The study authors reviewed changes in bird biodiversity using data from the International Union for Conservation of Nature's"Red List”to reveal population changes among the world's11,000 bird species,The findings mirror the results of a2019study which determined that nearly3 billion breeding birds have been lost during the
past50years across the United States and Canada.
Despite their findings,study authors say there is hope for bird conservation efforts,but transformative change is needed."The fate of bird populations is strongly dependent on stopping the loss of habitats,"says Lees."That is often driven by demand for resources.We need to better consider how commodity(货物)flows can contribute to biodiversity loss and try to reduce the human footprint on the natural world."
"Fortunately,the global network of bird conservation organizations taking part in this study have the tools to prevent further loss of bird species and abundance,"adds Rosenberg. "From land protection to policies supporting sustainable resource-use,it all depends on the will of governments to live side by side with nature on our shared planet."
28.What's the main cause of bird extinction?
A.Significant climate change.
B.Destruction of their habitats
C.Human's overuse of wetland.
D.A new wave of bird immigration.
29.How does the author display the gravity of the new wave?
A.By listing concrete data.
B.By providing examples.
C.By interviewing-people.
D.By explaining concepts.
30.What plays a key role in preventing further loss of birds?
