The IUCN Red List : Guiding Conservation for 50 years

This is an eye opening video by IUCN on animal conservation. We human beings are destroying our mother earth for a long time now and many of the fellow species extinct or about to get extinct. We cut trees, destroy forests, hunt and indiscriminately kill animals, pollute earth, all for our material gains and nothing else; we do almost irreversible damage to earth. Please think about what we are doing to our earth and do support initiatives like this. Make people aware by sharing. This earth is not entirely ours, but we share it with animals, birds, plants and other living things.

  1. It's amazing that we are creating a world where we wipe out so many of our fellow inhabitants. I think, for the most part, over population is the cause. We need to stop having so many children and take care of the kids and the creatures who are already here! Thanks, Bodhi...

    1. I agree completely. Population explosion is a big problem. So is our greed. We will never get satisfied with what we have got. As Mahatma Gandhi wisely said “The world has enough for everyone's need, but not enough for everyone's greed.” I think, from nature's perspective, the evolution of human beings - the biggest mistake - nature could have committed, ever!!
