Biodiversity

"God saw all that he had made, and it was very good."

— Genesis 1:31

Creator of all life,

The biodiversity of our planet is extraordinary: millions of species, all interconnected in a fragile balance. This richness is threatened by our actions.

Thank You for this diversity of life. For each species that plays its role in the ecosystem, for this magnificent complexity that sustains life on Earth.

Help us protect this biodiversity. To preserve habitats, fight against species extinction, live in harmony with nature. We are just one species among others.

Amen.

Reflection

How do your daily choices affect biodiversity? How could you protect it a little more?

For the preservation of all species and ecosystems.
