Hint: Biodiversity can be defined as the vast array of species of microorganisms, algae, fungi, plants, animals occurring on the earth either in the terrestrial or aquatic habitats and the ecological complexes of which they are a part.

Complete step by step answer:
1.Biodiversity is the way so don’t’ let nature go astray
2.Truth be bold, biodiversity is worth more than gold.

Additional information:
-Methods of conservation of biodiversity : They can be broadly classified as
In situ conservation
Ex situ conservation
-In Situ conservation : is the most appropriate method to maintain species of wild animals and plants in their natural habitats.
This approach includes protection of the total ecosystem through a network of protected areas.
The common natural habitats (protected areas) that have been set for in situ conservation of wild animals and plants include-1. Natural parks 2. Wildlife sanctuaries 3. Biosphere reserves 4. Several wetlands, mangroves and coral reefs. 5. Sacred groves and lakes
In situ conservation also includes the introduction of plants, animal’s species back into agricultural, horticultural and animal husbandry practices that are cultivated / reproduced for their reuse by farmers/ animal husbandry people.
-Ex situ conservation : involves cultivation of rare plants and rearing of threatened animal species in Botanical and Zoological gardens respectively and preserving the former in the form of seeds in seed banks etc. By means of tissue culture techniques.

Note:
Biodiversity should be conserved to maintain essential ecological processes and life supporting systems (air, water and soils), to preserve the diversity of species or the range of genetic material of the world's organisms. And to ensure a continuous use of species in fact ecosystems, that support communities and urban activities.
