ecosystem damage
Nature's balance disrupted
Ecosystem damage is harm to natural environments that disrupts the web of relationships among living organisms and their surroundings.
It includes habitat destruction, species loss, pollution, and degradation of natural resources: The oil spill caused extensive ecosystem damage along the coastline.
The term appears frequently in environmental policy and impact assessments, where it encompasses both immediate harm and long-term degradation of ecological functions.
