Nature is the life-blood of planet Earth, and biomes are our way of organizing our knowledge of ecosystems and habitats. The diversity of life on Earth is astounding and the full extent of its interconnectedness is beyond knowing. Researchers have counted fewer than 2 million species of the estimated 12 or 13 million species that exist. There is much to learn, much to be astonished by, and much to protect.
