How does evolution by natural selection affect the biodiversity of life on earth?

It merely increases biodiversity.

Why does overexploitation decrease biodiversity?

To understand how overexploitation decreases biodiversity we have to understand what overexploitation is. Overexploitation occurs when the number of individuals taken from a wild population is so great the population becomes severely reduced in numbers. As you know biodiversity is the variety of life on earth, described in terms of the number of different species. This being said human involvement in the environments is impacting the biodiversity. Mammals are being hunted for their hides, tusks, horns, or bones almost to the point of extinction. An example of this would be the Siberian tiger. Overfishing can cause a decline in biodiversity. Hopefully that helps!
