Description: Illustrates that natural diversity is the key to environmental stability by comparing and constrasting the stable population of a tropical rain forest with the unstable Arctic tundra. Explains several methods used to simplify the environment, such as monoculture, stream channelization, and specialized technology, which create an unstable population and hasten the extinction of many species. Chronicles the attempts of the Audubon Society to reintroduce species into areas formerly inhabited and to save other species from extinction. Emphasizes the need for good conservation and environmental protection measures if the earth is to remain diversified and, therefore, stable., Illustrates that natural diversity is the key to environmental stability by comparing and constrasting the stable population of a tropical rain forest with the unstable Arctic tundra.
