Restoring ecosystems is harder than rebuilding because ecosystems are complex, interconnected systems with delicate balances that take years, even centuries, to develop naturally. Restoration requires deep understanding of species interactions, soil health, and climate factors, often disrupted irreversibly by human activity. Rebuilding structures is straightforward, with clear blueprints and timelines, while ecosystems demand long-term, unpredictable efforts to revive biodiversity and functionality. Human errors or incomplete knowledge can lead to failed restoration, making it a slower, costlier process.Related websites:
