Nature photographer and conservationist Prince Hussain Aga Khan discusses the beauty and uniqueness of various species, from insects to marine life, and emphasizes the interconnectedness of all living beings.
Drawing from personal experiences and vivid imagery, he highlights the wonders of biodiversity, but also expresses concern over the alarming rate of species extinction, habitat destruction, and environmental degradation caused by human activities.
“Who are we to destroy or even diminish biodiversity?”, he asks. “What more delightful aspect of nature is there? An elixir, the wondrous miracle of life on Earth.”
After his presentation, Prince Hussain is joined by Auguste von Bayern (BIOTOPIA) for a brief Q&A session.
