On behalf of the diversity is part of a series of short films that were produced with special funds from the Ministry of Science, Research and the Arts. They shed light on very fundamental and repeatedly raised questions on the subject of biodiversity: What actually is a “species”? Why is biodiversity important? Is the Disappearance of Species Really Bad? What role do insects play in nature? And why are natural history collections important for protecting nature? Or even more specifically: Why can a small beetle hold up a huge construction project?
