natural environment. For example, nitrogen and phosphorus runoff from agricultural fields can cause large algal blooms that starve the water, and therefore its inhabitants, of oxygen.
25 Σεπ 2023 · Habitat loss, invasive species, pollution, predator loss, population (human), overharvesting, and climate change (HIPPPOC) are the major causes of biodiversity loss in the Anthropocene.
7 Σεπ 2023 · The activity focuses on the five threats to biodiversity represented by the acronym HIPPO (habitat loss, invasive species, pollution, population growth, and overharvesting). The activity also leverages Wild Hope, a series of short films that highlight species and ecosystems threatened by biodiversity loss, as well as people working to protect them.
The HIPPCO model is an acronym used to identify the major causes of biodiversity loss. It stands for Habitat destruction/fragmentation, Invasive species, Pollution (including climate change), Population growth (human), Overharvesting (overexploitation).
A famous American biologist, Edward O. Wilson, identified the five biggest impacts human activities have on biodiversity and listed the severity of these impacts in order, using the acronym H.I.P.P.O. Lets’s take a look at what each element means: HABITAT LOSS.
