The sixth extinction is upon us.
The past few mass extinctions were caused by varying things, but we are causing the one we will all be facing. Many types of animals are threatened by the carbon dioxide we have been emitting, ranging from the depletion of ozone to the deforestation we have been condoning.
The planet is undergoing the largest series of extinctions of species since 65 million years ago, when the larger dinosaurs went extinct. An estimated natural background rate was an estimated one to five extinction of species each year, while scientists say that dozens are going extinct everyday, saying that the extinction of species is occurring at 1,000 to 10,000 the natural background rate. There are many ways that we are contributing
