I don't support the ammendment specifically,"Under the proposed new approach, instead of waiting for the ministry to approve permits, most proponents will be able to begin an activity immediately after registering." When a contracter, developer, or gov't has Carte Blanche to begin excavation immediately 🤔 they will remover and clear cut lands and that is too late for biota, plant and animal life of a particular region or period. It encompasses all living organisms, including plants, animals, and microorganisms, within a specific area or ecosystem.
Here's a more detailed breakdown:
Definition:
Biota essentially means the totality of life, including all flora and fauna, in a given location or time period.
Scope:
This term can be used to describe the living organisms in a specific area, such as a forest, ocean, or even a single pond.
Ecology:
In ecology, biota is a key concept for understanding the interactions and relationships between different species within an ecosystem.
Biota could include the diverse plant and animal life in that particular geographic region. Microscopic organisms in a soil arecdisturbed. This has a domino effect and the entire assemblage of species in a specific geological region can be affected. Biota includes all flora, fauna, and ecological communities.
