The Next Mass Extinction Has Already Started And We Might Not Be Able To Stop It

The last mass extinction marked the end of the dinosaur-era. Now, planet earth is possibly facing its sixth mass extinction and it will be the first one, that is solely based on human activity.

Climate change, unsustainable use of land and water, pollution and habitat destruction are only a few reasons.
Let's take a closer look!
