Statistics Record

Governments, business and many types of institutions collect, organise and record statistics. Statistics capture vital information about such things as the economy, population and the environment and therefore allow meaningful comparisons to be made. This can then inform decisions and plans made about such issues which in turn become public policies. While it may be the issues behind the statistics, rather than the statistics as such that command the public’s attention, it must be recognised that it is the figures that inform these issues.

The author considers statistics to be important because

a) There are too many species to count them all.b) The number of species is constantly changing.c) Currently, more species are appearing than are becoming extinct.d) Human action has upset the balance of the natural environment.
