Andes

The Tropical Andes are the richest biodiversity hotspot on Earth, supporting thousands of endemic plants and animals across diverse elevations. Conservation successes include protected areas and community-based forest management. However, habitat loss due to agriculture, mining, and climate change remains critical. Innovative directions include integrating precision conservation using drones and satellite imagery, restoration of degraded slopes with native species, and eco-tourism models that provide sustainable income while protecting habitats, ensuring that local communities become co-stewards of biodiversity.

The world's longest continental mountain range, running along South America's western edge. This active volcanic and seismic zone is a textbook example of oceanic plate subduction. The range creates extreme climatic gradients, from hyper-arid deserts to tropical glaciers, and its mineral wealth shaped pre-Columbian empires and modern economies.
