Destination: The Java Zone by Dicum - Essay Example

 According to Dicum (2009), the German were the same people who brought coffee here.  The writer liked coffee, making him curious about what goes on the major plantations.

The original habitat of coffee was in Ethiopia but since Nicaragua and other countries share some similar conditions with this natural habitat, people started planting it in areas where there were forests previously. As a consequence, birds, reptiles, and other animal species in these forests have increasingly been endangered as almost all forests are gone only to create space for this lucrative plant. It took the intervention of North America to realize that there has been a significant drop in the number of birds in Central America. As per the reports of the researchers, this is attributed to cutting down trees previously used as coffee shades.

As such, this work pertains to biodiversity more than anything else.  The information is similar to the context that constitutes biodiversity.  This is due to the reality that most farmers in Nicaragua and other Central American nations have been affecting biodiversity through their own actions.
