From the tallest mountains to the depths of the sea, from volatile volcanoes to ancient caves and plateaus, from hot springs to seagrass meadows – the variety of natural beauty in Asia is simply immense. Unfortunately, many of these places  are highly threatened by habitat destruction, climatic changes and human interference. Much needs to be done, and quickly, to put a halt to senseless devastation – before these sites become mere Asian memories.
