By Captain Paul Watson We are at the present time living in an age of mass
extinction. Each year, more than 20,000 unique species disappear from this
planet forever. This represents more that two species per hour. Species
extinction is the fuel that supports the ever increasing progress of the
machinery of civilization. Individual humans are for the most part insulated from
the reality of species loss. Alienated from the natural world, guided by
anthropocentric attitudes, the average human being is unaware and non-caring
about the biological holocaust that is transpiring each and every
day. The facts are clear. More plant and animal species will
go through extinction within our generation than have been lost thorough natural
causes over the past two hundred million years. Our single human generation,
that is, all people born between 1930 and 2010 will witness the complete
obliteration of one third to one half of all the Earth's life forms, each and
every one of them the product of more than two billion years of evolution. This
is biological meltdown, and what this really means is the end to vertebrate
evolution on planet Earth.The Politics of Extinction
