    Default The Sixth Mass Extinction!

    According to researchers from all over the world, we are currently in the middle of Earth's Sixth Mass Extinction.
    Animals species, thanks with a little help from man is dying out 100 times faster than normal rate.

    For me, this is very alarming news and feel angry at man, just because that we can't simply stop killing for sports.
    Do you think that we could help stop the Mass Extinction or is it too late?

    What do you think of this, I would like to hear your views on this.

    Not only the killing for sport but the changes we have made to the environment.

    Our own overpopulation of the planet, our use of fire, deforestation and chemical pollution have done more damage, although hunting for sport has done damage too.

    This I do agree very much.
    If we wish to make all the species on the planet extinct including ourselves, then carrying on in what we are doing will take us straight there.

    I think the type of energy that we use needs to change as soon as possible.
    Start recycling even more if possible and start planting more trees is also very important instead chopping them down.

    They say, if all the bees died out, within the next 3 years, we will all be dead.

    The frustrating thing about renewables is that people are so against change and certainly in the UK & Ireland, people fight to stop progression in that field. Calling them eyesores & coming up with allsorts of reasons why they shouldnt be in their locality. I've had people tell me we dont need them as the world has survived for 1000's of years ( ignoring the fact the world is millions of years old!) Those same people fail to realise that animals have always lived perfectly alongside & with the land as man did until the last 100 or so years when we have done nothing but rob, rape & pillage the land for nothing other than pure greed.

    Since the dawn of man, there hasn't been a single day of peace.
    Even Sky News are talking about this issue of the Sixth Extinction.

    I believe that women are responsible for quite a bit of environmental degradation, all the bloody cleaning, showers ; make up , buying clothes , throwing away clothes (often made by other women in third world slave like conditions), buying more clothes, washing said clothes, heating water for such washing, the list is endless when compared to their grandmothers of yesteryear.

    It is a vast majority of men who make the products & design the clothes!
