All biodiversity hotspots are already impacted to differing degrees by human activities.

At present, there are over 3 billion people living within terrestrial and freshwater biodiversity hotspots, many of which border marine hotspots.

Endemic species (species only found in one place in the world) are 2.7 times more at risk than widespread species.

Endemic species are 100%, 84% & 54% at risk of extinction in islands, mountains and oceans respectively.
