To describe this graph, I would say that the lines running from green to yellow to grey are an estimate of the loss of biodiversity over a given period. The grey is the worst.
The decline in biodiversity in Latin America is 94% between 1970 and 2018.
NB: there is nothing that can increase biodiversity, every loss of species is definitive.

It is once again time to show our colors ahead of the UN #ClimateConferenceBonn #SB58 to draw attention to the climate and biodiversity crisis. It is no time to hope for "miracles" - we must act now! #COP28 #Climatecrisis #BiodiversityCrisis #BiodiversityStripes #ShowYourStripes #WarmingStripes
