COP26 BIPOC Through lens of Indigenous Cultures
CA bigger crisis looms within Nature than COVID
Nathalie Seddon, at another COP talk I attended (separate blog here), a professor of biodiversity at the University of Oxford and founding director of the Bunloit NbS, says:
‘We are living in an almost dead, empty ecosystem’.
- Just 4% of mammals on the planet are wild?
- 96% are either humans (34%) or for people such as food or pets (62%)
- The same is true of birds with cheap profitable chicken destined for fast food or sold in supermarkets far outstripping wild birds by a factor of 3 (a major factor contributing to the ecocide now in UK Rivers)
- WWF warn of a 68% average decline in species populations since 1970
- We are living in what scientists describe as an age known as the Anthropocene – a sixth mass extinction event
- Extinctions caused indisputably by ourselves
