What will become of Earth @ this rate?
Show the world your love of earth & wildlife, help bring an awareness to all . When others see the beauty of our planet, wildlife, I believe they become a little more conscious of their actions - http://viralurl.com/wehit/3S/

So little respect for our wildlife.....
Search Amazon.com for endangered species
“Biologists conservatively estimate that the current rate of extinction is at least 1,000 to 10,000 times the rate before we arrived. This amounts to an annual extinction rate of 0.1% to 1% per year.” These estimated extinction rates are startling and noteworthy. “1% extinction rate at least 20% of the world’s current animal and plant species could be gone by 2030 and 50% could vanish by the end of this century.” (Sustaining Biodiversity)At these rates the amount of extinction will damage the world so drastically that it will take twenty times the amount of time it took to damage it, to fix it. The worst part is the rate of loss is likely to increase over the next “50- 100 years”. (Sustaining Biodiversity)
