hey bc, this is fact.
transformation of landscape.
overexploitation of species.
pollution.
introduction of alien species.
the sixth extinction is directly attributed to homo sapiens. phase one began when humans began to explore and disperse to different regions of the world.
phase two can be attributed to the beginning of agriculture.
wherever early humans migrated, other species became extinct. earth cannot sustain the trend in human population. it is reaching its limit in carrying capacity. less than 10% of the worlds species have survived the worlds sixth mass extinction. none are expected to survive the next one.
some experts have estimated that up to half of presently existing species will become extinct by 2100.
by the mid 1980's tropical rainforests were being cleared at a rate of 20 million acres per year.
i wrote a 40 page paper on this very subject in college. i still have about 39.75 pages of information left on the subject.
we are poison. the fact is, earth can not sustain itself at the rate at which we are depleting its resources.
most of these findings say the damage, for the most part is reversable but we are making very slow strides toward that end.
99%. FACT!
