Biodiversity is currently decreasing at an alarming rate, and the modern age has already been dubbed a “new age of extinction”. To ensure an abundant future for all, biodiversity must be preserved. At the Tsukuba Botanical Garden, we are working tirelessly to preserve endangered plant species, which are the very symbol of today's appalling biodiversity loss.
