Extinction

hello everyone!Another depressing post, I can tell you are excited!So you guys all know about how the dinosaurs all went extinct?Well that was called a mass extinction and scientists think we are in one now.A mass extinction is were many species go extinct.Most of the time it is because of some environmental disaster or environmental pressure (I will explain what those mean in another post) but the one we are having right now is caused by human activity.Human activity is were humans do something that affects the environment like farming, fishing, or logging.Did you know that every second a football field sized chunk of the rainforests is cut down?Approximately 30,000 species are lost every year.We need to preserve all species because if one becomes extinct,the whole ecosystem pays.



lets say that one bug goes extinct.Then the population of the voles that eat that bug go down,and the owls start paying to and the ecosystem collapses


One thing that you can do is help raise awareness!!!!raise awareness about any environmental crisis you can!then whoever you tell will tell someone and so on!

Please help,
