Description
The mollusks in Slovakia can be used as an ecological indicator connecting the UN SDGs of zero hunger, clean water & sanitation, climate action, and life on land. This investigation into Slovakia’s sustainability efforts examines the preventions for biodiversity loss, increased extreme weather, change of ecosystems, and expanding equity. Mollusks connect to ecological conservation because human activity is altering the landscape and their historical range has changed. Equity connects to mollusks through generating solutions in restructuring financial systems, empowering impoverished communities, and cleaning up natural environments. Studying the DPSIR of mollusks can be a tool for a more sustainable future.
