πŸ“„ Fresh Studies Support New Mass Extinction Theory

LONDON (Reuters) – Fears that the earth is undergoing a mass species wipe-out similar to that which destroyed the dinosaurs 65 million years ago gained new ground on Thursday with the publication of two British studies.

They found that the rate of loss of insect and plant species across Britain was running at several times what would be considered normal, and had been doing so for a long time.

All I know is that man directly or indirectly causes recent extinctions of some animal and plant species. Will this trend continue to the future until all are extinct?
