The conservation of biodiversity is of great urgency everywhere but especially in Alsace, where it is under strong pressure due to the high population density.
Land consumption and thus the destruction of biotopes and biodiversity are taking place due to urbanization and its infrastructure and the need to share territory for agricultural, urban, travel or recreational purposes.
Especially in agriculture, biodiversity should be given more consideration in daily practice, as it contributes significantly to the functioning of agricultural ecosystems.
More biodiversity means protection and preservation of the soil and its microorganisms, protection against warming, dehydration, erosion, insect pests and water pollution. With more biodiversity, we can also counteract the exponentially rapid extinction of animals such as birds, insects and plants. With more biodiversity, we also preserve a visually vibrant cultural landscape, as it has characterized Alsace for centuries.
