Fight Global Climate Change
There have been five mass extinctions when 50% or more of the species on Earth died out. We are now in the midst of the sixth. Over 5.000 species a year go extinct due to climate change. That is a rate higher than the Permian Extinction when 90% of the species on Earth disappeared. For the first time, a mass extinction is being caused by the activities of a single species, humans. If you care to join the fight against global climate change, here are a few organizations you can support: The Union Of Concerned Scientists at www.ucsusa.org, The Wilderness Society at www.wilderness.org , or Defenders of Wildlife at www.defenders.org .
