Ecosystem resilience helps prevent disease outbreaks from "summary" of Soil, Grass, and Cancer by André Voisin
Ecosystem resilience plays a crucial role in maintaining the balance of nature. When an ecosystem is healthy and resilient, it is better equipped to prevent disease outbreaks. This is because a resilient ecosystem is able to adapt to changes and disturbances, making it less susceptible to the spread of diseases. Healthy ecosystems have a diverse range of species that work together to maintain equilibrium. Each species plays a unique role in the ecosystem, contributing to its overall health and stability. When one species is affected by disease, other species in the ecosystem can step in to fill the gap and prevent the disease from spreading unchecked. In contrast, ecosystems that lack resilience are more vulnerable to disease outbreaks. When an ecosystem is already weakened by factors such as pollution, habitat loss, or climate change, it becomes less able to resist the spread of diseases. This can lead to rapid and widespread outbreaks that have devastating effects on the ecosystem and the species within it.- We can help prevent disease outbreaks and protect the health of our environment. This involves taking steps to protect and restore natural habitats, reduce pollution, and support biodiversity. By doing so, we can ensure that ecosystems are better equipped to withstand threats and maintain their balance, ultimately benefiting both the environment and the species that rely on it.
