from all sources, including terrestrial, marine, and other
ecosystems.
India is one of the mega biodiversity centers in the world and has
two of the world's 18 ‘biodiversity hotspots’ located in
the Western Ghats and in the Eastern Himalayas.

15. Impact on future changes in climatic
conditions on biodiversity
Greater warming over lands than over the oceans.
Oceans are likely to continue to warm for several centuries due
to greenhouse concentrations which have already taken place.
melting of sea ice.
Droughts and floods in many areas.
There is a real fear among some small island inhabitants that
their lands may totally disappear under water because of rising
sea levels caused by global warming.
