Ecosystems and the energy cycle in the environment!

Due to the diversity in natural structure and climate, India has many ecosystems of greater or lesser extent. India has major ecosystems like mountain, plateau, forest, desert, river, wetland, coastal etc. Every ecosystem, every living society has a limit of endurance. If there is a change in the elements of the environment and if the balance is disturbed, the consequences of this are seen on the ecosystem. Ecosystems are dynamic and may occasionally be disturbed. The more frequent or more severe the disturbances in the ecosystem, the longer it takes for the ecosystem to return to its original state. Like when a volcano erupts or a snow falls, the animals, plants and organic matter (organic matter) in the environment are destroyed. Such an ecosystem is re-established after a long period of time. On the contrary, in the event of wildfires and cyclones, the ecosystem is restored in a short period of time. In ecosystems where food supply is abundant, the number of animals increases and in those where food supply is low, the number of animals decreases. When we change ecosystems to suit our needs, we unknowingly disrupt their balance. Many of the world's ecosystems have been altered by human intervention. Environmental stress beyond certain limits can threaten not only ecosystems but the entire ecosystem and, in turn, human existence
