The Great Dying

THE GREAT DYING – new research: “We are currently losing species at a faster rate than in any of Earth’s past extinction events. It is probable that we are in the first phase of another, more severe mass extinction… We cannot predict the tipping point that will send ecosystems into total collapse, but it is an inevitable outcome if we do not reverse biodiversity loss.”

Can biodiversity loss be reversed? No – it is inevitably accelerating because of extreme ecological #overshoot. However, protecting remaining diversity and ecosystems remains a key component of a #JustCollapse – to ease the descent.
