Bob Davison describes the Endangered Species Act (ESA) as an effective tool for conserving biological diversity. What is his rationale for the value of focusing on individual species? The public is not concerned about the economic costs of individual species recovery. A focus on individual species is cheaper than protecting entire ecosystems. Establishing public empathy for charismatic species provides an opportunity to educate people about lesser-known species. The public tends to value intact ecosystems over particular plant and animal species.

Conservation Biology

The study of how to prevent the loss of biological diversity on the planet is called conservation. Biological diversity, also termed biodiversity, consists of various life forms found in a specific location or across the entire planet, including ecosystems, species, populations, and genes. Conservation thus aims to protect the diversity of life at all levels of biological organization.
