ended and the renowned International Year of Biodiversity, and he also found one of the most eagerly anticipated studies by biologists and environmentalists Valencia. Far from disappointing
all expectations, the report released just weeks ago has finally put the Valencia region at the head continental biodiversity, and no wonder, since the thesis, supported by numerous academic studies provided by local universities national and has recorded no fewer than 17,300 different species within its regional boundaries to be a benchmark in Europe.
The Valencian Community is one of the seventeen autonomous communities that make up Spain. Its surface, just barely 23,255 square kilometers is just over four and a half percent of the entire national territory, making it the eighth largest community in the country, but despite its limited size, it contains about twenty percent of all biodiversity listed in the Iberian country, a rate that is unparalleled in the entire European continent, Asia or the Middle East less. As recently unveiled the Minister for the Environment, Water, Planning and Housing, D. Juan Cotino have been counted in 1300 about seventeen taxa of flora and fauna, surpassing the most optimistic expectations expressed in this regard and to meet professionals and lovers of art. It also warns that the currently known species are only a percentage of really inhabiting the area, so the Cryptozoology still plays a major role at the time of cataloging life forms here are their habitat and assess the variety.
The Levantine region, washed by the waters of the Mediterranean has many diverse ecosystems, marine plains, mountains and valleys of different altitudes, marshes, lagoons, forests, wetlands, islands, prairies, river ecosystems, coastal and marine environment of different depth and consideration are present along with rural and urban landscapes, thereby providing an invaluable range of habitats that are home to such notable figures of living entities, being the main support for its existence.
also noteworthy that the autonomous region of Valencia has one of the webs most significant protected areas in Spain, between Parks, Municipal Natural Areas, natural reserves, natural monuments, protected landscapes, flora and micro-reserves of Special Protection Areas for Bird, Valencia has protected more than thirteen percent of its territory, a policy which undoubtedly is helping to preserve natural wealth holding despite its shortcomings. Natura 2000 has for its part of a wide representation and do not forget that the inn of Els Ports - Maestrazgo boasts a strong candidate to be declared a Biosphere Reserve by UNESCO. However, this is the least damaged area of \u200b\u200bmany coastal strip bordering the western Mediterranean and one of the best conserved regions of the country environmentally. Concrete data that reflects this situation is that the province of Castellón, the northernmost of the three that make up the community, still has more than forty-four percent of its original forest cover, followed by Alicante with more than a third of Forest Preserve, is certainly the province of Valencia the less fortunate, thanks to the increased demographic weight.

Traces of the rich biodiversity of Valencia. In any case, it pays to be more self-critical despite the goodwill of the results and pay attention to the problems facing this real hot spot of biodiversity English. Without hesitating a moment, is precisely the population growth experienced in recent years, along with the hated climate change, the more problems to be faced if we want the region remains the epicenter is alive. In less than a decade, the human population has increased Valencian beyond forty percent, well above the five million inhabitants, a figure that inevitably takes its toll on the environment. A dozen cities have exceeded more than fifty thousand inhabitants, creating a demand for materials and energy more than substantial.
In light of the conclusions expressed in much-praised report, only remains to keep betting on clean energy, preservation of species and ecosystems, and the proper management of the rich environment of Valencia, in addition to requiring policies committed to sustainable development.
Please welcome the International Year of Forests and Chemistry.
