No matter what your beliefs are, you need to know that going green is needed today more than ever. What does this mean? Why is it essential?

Keystone species are those that help maintain the balance and survival of an ecosystem; without them, the ecosystem would drastically change, or it would completely disappear. As the name implies, these species are the keystone the ecosystem is based on; they are particularly important because, if they disappear, no other species can replace them. Keystone species are usually predators, but they might also include fungi and plants.

Wildfires are enormous fires that occur in forests and areas with plant cover, and are very difficult to control.

Over thousands of years, wildlife—plants and animals—formed their own unique ecosystems without any influence of outside forces until the Galapagos Islands underwent many changes, especially since the arrival of humans to the Islands. With the increase of the population, the demand for food also increased, causing an increase in fishing, poaching, hunting, in addition to an increase in the use of wood. 

Now, an additional reason for migration has emerged: climate change. The problem is that the nature of this disaster has not yet been identified, whether it is a natural phenomenon or a human-made one.

For more than 180 years, scientists have studied this rich ecosystem and its species. Among all the scientists, the Galapagos Islands were of great importance to Charles Darwin; it was the place that gave him the main idea of evolution by natural selection.

Many people complain frequently, and I may understand this if it is of the challenges in life; yet, I am surprised by those who complain about our climate and surrounding nature. I always hear: "What a climate! Why does it not rain as it does in other countries? We do not have a lovely ambiance or spectacular scenes!" As if we have the choice to be in this nature or that!

If you are an adventurer and a nature lover, you have to add the Galapagos Islands to your bucket list. In addition to the lack of natural predators and friendly wildlife, these Islands are teeming with a diverse array of endemic plants and animals. This means that they are not found elsewhere in the world, thanks to the geographical isolation of the Islands from other places.

The Red Sea in eastern Egypt is full of coral reefs that people from all over the world come just to take pictures next to them and enjoy watching them while diving. However, changes to Earth's climate in recent years have made coral reefs more vulnerable than before. Will they someday lose and be deprived of their habitats? This is what we explore in this article.

Acknowledging the uniqueness, longevity, and versatility of the bicycle, the United Nations General Assembly has declared 3 June World Bicycle Day.

Birds are on the move as annual migration is an integral part of the avian life-cycle. They fly tens of thousands of kilometers in search for more convenient ecological conditions, safer habitats, food, and mating grounds. 

We usually hear contradictory views on agricultural pesticides, with much focus on their hazards.

For many reasons, global warming is not a subject that everyone agrees on. Nevertheless, is it a risk we can afford to take?

The story of nature and mankind is a long one; it is a story that started with fear and ended with better understanding of nature.

Our ecosystems consist of armies of creatures; without their presence the whole ecosystem will collapse.
