Lifelines of the Landscape: Safeguarding Endangered Flora

Abstract

Aishah Alatawi*

Amidst the intricate tapestry of life that blankets our planet, flora—the diverse array of plants that paint our landscapes—are the lifelines that sustain ecosystems, shape environments, and provide the foundation for countless organisms. However, the vibrant hues of these lifelines are fading, as numerous plant species face the perilous brink of extinction. Safeguarding endangered flora is not just an environmental endeavour; it is a commitment to preserving the very essence of life on Earth. This essay delves into the significance of endangered flora, the threats they face, and the strategies that hold the potential to safeguard these lifelines of the landscape.
