Note(s): Biological diversity (biodiversity) is generally considered "the total variability of life on Earth, or the variability among living organisms from all sources and the ecological systems of which they are a part, including diversity within species, between species and of ecosystems" (Lovejoy, 1980; Heywood and Watson, 1995). This is a nearly all encompassing definition, but since the concept of biodiversity is truly more concrete than abstract, it should apply to as many sectors of the public as possible. Wide appeal is needed to fully convey the various facets of biodiversity.
