Why does Europe have such little (bio)diversity?
>>219609273
>>219609273They need to import more subsaharan and indians to combat this appalling lack of diversity
The agricultural revolution and its consequences has been a disaster for the planet.
>>219609273It's cold and was the first place to be heavily industrialized.
>>219609273What surprises me is how China and India managed to keep their biodiversity, europeans raped their lands hard asf despite having far less people, greedy mfers now they plant pines to pretend they have nature back like wtf nigga
>>219609273Spanish "high" diversity can be attributed to Hispanic Americans migrating there and planting their native flora, like palms, araucarias, papaya trees, etc>>219609399All fakely and artificially planted, not a single natural real forest in sign, are Finns trying to compensate something or what
>>219609273>french Guyana in yellow as mainland France>mostly untouched part of the Amazonian forest>but Brazil is green>Denmark in orange, Greenland has no color>RDC must be in green but no colorLooks a bad way to consider biodiversity, reds country looks more legitimate though. Biomes map may be better.
>>219609648Actually looked into this chud fact once. The truth is that no one knows how much old growth we have. It's never been tallied. Makes it easy to make up whatever facts best fit your agenda I guess.
>>219609612It’s not hard for nature to fight back against Indians and Chinks.
>>219609654Brazil will always be green, its a continental country with 6 biomes, only russia and the us can compete on this, 90% of the country lives on the coast, the great majority of it is untouched
>>219609273Europeans hate nature and life Hispanics love nature and lifeThis is why we will win in the end
>>219609273and that's a good thing.
>>219609399biodiversity doesn't mean woodland only
>>219609612half of china is literally empty
ENTRA ESPAÑA>>219609648>>219609858Panchitada histórica.
>>219609612Climate and geography define biodiversity much more than anything else.
>>219609748Its about biodiversity my nibba, not about how much of the same plants and animals you have, but how many different ones
>>219609273I've heard geographical barriers like the Mediterranean and some east-west running mountain ranges like the Alps make it harder for species to survive glacial periods and recolonize glaciated terrain and tundra after. The mountain ranges in North America mostly run north-south and none of the other continents had glaciation as severe.Of course Europe also had a much higher population density and agriculture for much longer
people tend to like our nature but i view it with contempt for this reasonjust a raped corpse of what it once was romanticised nonsensically into what it never was
>>219610122That's not what you said, strangely out-of-character Brazilian guy.
>>219610153yeah, I agree your land is fucking boring
>>219609273This map is like an IQ test.Smaller countries are obviously going to have smaller areas with less climate and geographical variety and with less types species It doesn't mean they don't have nature at all.In Europe people cancel vital road construction becasue there is a super special cockroach species in one bush. In non-European countries they just level the whole forest and be done with. Yes technically you still have these decreasing patches of nature with many diverse species in it, so that's why the country counts as "diverse".
>>219610532lol typical arrogant European response
>>219610582NIGGER
>>219610532Talking about non-europeans leveling entire forests while in reality western europe already killed pretty much its entire native forests centuries ago before moving to do it elsewhere, nice of you to be considerate of the ~1% left
>>219609273Duh? It's the old world.New worlders simply won't understand
>>219609918most of europe are fields
>>219609273lmao at Haiti being yellow but the DR being green
>>219610532this describes the whole.the chart is quite senseless since the degree is dominantly determined by artificial borders of countries. green-red coloration seems to be a mild trick too.
>>219609273europeans hunted, torched, and chopped down every piece of wilderness for settlement expansion.>>219610532It's not that deep nigga, Human expansion negatively correlates to biodiversity loss. Central Europe, Northern Africa, and Central Asia were the epicenters of human civilization and settlements for 20,000+ years.
>>219609273Looks almost like smaller countries with harsher climates that require more specialization have lower biodiversity than large multi-climate countries and countries with paradise climates that support easy life.
>>219609273this is mainly just correlated to landmass of the country desu, desertic or frozen shitholes aside
>>219609612>what is population densityAlso, there are basically no xboxhueg countries in Europe proper that contain very varied biomes.
>>219609273>Protect the environment!>Kills and destroys everything in sight
