Ecological Imbalance

Topic

Ecological imbalance refers to a state of disruption in the stable equilibrium or homeostasis of an ecosystem, where changes in biotic or abiotic factors cannot be corrected by natural feedback mechanisms. This disruption can lead to the degradation of habitats, loss of biodiversity, and potential ecosystem collapse. It is often driven by human activities such as pollution, overexploitation, and climate change, as well as natural disasters.
