Answer 2

The option that will have the greatest impact on biodiversity is:

**eating less meat and switching to a more plant-based diet.**

This change can significantly reduce the demand for livestock farming, which is a major driver of habitat destruction, deforestation, and water usage, all of which contribute to biodiversity loss. Transitioning to a more plant-based diet can lessen the pressure on ecosystems and promote conservation of wildlife.
