Read:
"Biological diversity" means the variability of living organisms of all origins, comprising, among others, terrestrial, marine and other aquatic ecosystems and the ecological complexes of which they make part; further understanding the diversity within species, between species and ecosystems.” (Article 2 of the Convention on Biological Diversity)
.
Brazil, a country of continental dimensions, is known to have an enormous biodiversity, being defined as the largest on the planet. Possessing a lot, and from different sources, echoes to our senses as having a great treasure available to everyone. ____________, we all know that a great treasure hidden in inaccessible places, or even located under our eyes, without our being able to see it, means a great dream…. and dreams don't usually come true... they can even evolve into nightmares...
Thus, it is evident that scientific knowledge, based on facts, is essential to support hypotheses that generate projects that allow to expand this knowledge and serve as a starting point for projects that allow the rational and sustained application of this wealth. Everyone knows that the worst attitude is “…kill the goose that lays the golden eggs…”. So we need to know where the eggs come from, and how to care for the hen and make her reproduce so that we can pass on this wealth as an inheritance.
