Biodiversity is the key to the productivity of natural systems and the multifunctional character of the natural environment, sustaining its immunity, adaptability and ability to regenerate. Preserving biodiversity is therefore one of the most important environmental issues. Unlike most western European countries, Lithuania still has a fairly large number of natural areas which are extremely diverse by European standards. Nevertheless the Lithuanian Environmental Strategy stresses the need to halt the threatening loss of biodiversity.
