The mechanisms that sustain all life on Earth, including human existence, depend on a wide range of biodiversity. Human beings impact the planet's biodiversity in different ways, either unintentional or intentional. The biggest threat to biodiversity to date is anthropogenic, as the humans have tried to reshape the natural habitats in order to make way for farmland or to harvest natural resources. Loss of biodiversity appears to influence ecosystems as much as climate change, pollution and other major forms of environmental stress. A healthy and balanced ecosystem is maintained by a diverse range of flora, fauna and microbes. The present review article narrates the role of various pollution in biodiversity decline that ultimately influence the web of life.
