    The global loss of wildlife is “significantly more alarming” than previously thought, according to a new study that found almost half the planet’s species are experiencing rapid population declines.
    Humans have already wiped out huge numbers of species and pushed many more to the brink – with some scientists saying we are entering a “sixth mass extinction” event, this time driven by humans.
    The main factor is the destruction of wild landscapes to make way for farms, towns, cities and roads, but climate change is also an important driver of species decline and is predicted to have an increasingly worse impact as the world warms.

    So who do we start killing!!!




    If you look at places like Europe, then the EU has mote than three times the population density of the USA and they seem to be doing fine. India has 12 times the population density. But people act as if the USA cannot support more people?

    Life keeps adapting to it's circumstances.
    Let's go Brandon !!!

    I wouldn’t call species extinction “adapting”.
