its plight will probably become even more precarious

[GoodTaste]

Do the words "plight", "probably" and "precarious" form alliteration? The phrase "its plight will probably become even more precarious" sounds neat and it seems to show me that alliteration is a natural tendency dearly appreciated by native English speakers

=====================
Nature is in trouble, and its plight will probably become even more precariousunless we do something about it1. Writing in Nature, Leclère et al.2 quantify what might be needed to reverse this deeply worrying path while also feeding people’s increasingly voracious appetites. The authors’ answer is to team ambitious conservation measures with food-system transformation in the hope of reversing the trend of global terrestrial biodiversity loss.

I think that was probably unintentional.

The title of the article appears to be intentional:

A recipe to reverse the loss of nature
How can the decline in global biodiversity be reversed, given the need to supply food? Computer modelling provides a way to assess the effectiveness of combining various conservation and food-system interventions to tackle this issue.

Have you ever seen a title that wasn't intentional?

Accidental alliteration happens all the time.

 

[PeterCW]

At the other extreme the Anglo-Saxons used alliteration rather than rhyme in their poetry.

I think that was probably unintentional too.

I think that was probably unintentional too.

Good point.

I've made a headline to compare with it:

A Strategy to Save the Loss of Nature

(Compare: A recipe to reverse the loss of nature)

Do you think if it works?

 

[GoesStation]

Good point.

I've made a headline to compare with it:

A Strategy to Save the Loss of Nature

(Compare: A recipe to reverse the loss of nature)

Do you think [STRIKE]if[/STRIKE] it works?

No. Nobody wants to preserve the decline of nature. The alliteration is fine, though, and wouldn't be noticed.

 

[GoodTaste]

Looks like I've misused the word "save"? I meant it be "to rescue or deliver from danger or harm (of the loss of nature)", not "to preserve (the loss of nature)".

If in the headline I made it means "to preserve", then I use this headline instead:

A Strategy to Save the Integrity of Nature

Does it work?

 

[GoesStation]

If [STRIKE]in[/STRIKE] the headline I made it means "to preserve", then I'll use this headline instead:

A Strategy to Save the Integrity of Nature

Does it work?

It's better, but not very natural.

 

[GoodTaste]

Please make it natural if you could.

I've thought an idea:

A Strategy to Save Nature

I'm not sure if it works.

That's fine.
