From the DNA in our bodies to far-distant galaxies, Creation is amazing, incredibly diverse and complex.
The same is true just for the variety of wild plants and animals on the Earth, which scientists call biodiversity. The relationships between species are part of what makes biodiversity so fascinating, with flora and fauna designed to play unique and specific roles in different habitats like woodland, grassland, or the oceans.
However, Creation also suffers the effects of the Fall. Disturbing a small part of the ecosystem risks major and unforeseen effects, and this is very apparent when humans move species around the world. Cereal crops we now eat, like wheat, are domesticated versions of plants that come from the Middle East. Potatoes are from America. Most of the flowers and shrubs in your garden are probably not native to the UK. There are many other examples of plants and animals which have been introduced to this country to great benefit.
