"Catatrophic Loss of Species"

It seems that there is a new reason for climate change advocates to panic everyday as more and more research piles on to support our position that the climate crisis is both real and man-made. You might want to gloat if it weren't so damn terrifying.

This from The Independent:

Scientists estimate that 12 per cent of all birds, 23 per cent of mammals, a quarter of conifers, a third of amphibians and more than half of all palm trees are threatened with imminent extinction. Climate change alone could lead to the further extinction of between 15 and 37 per cent of all species by the end of the century, the scientists say: "Because biodiversity loss is essentially irreversible, it poses serious threats to sustainable development and the quality of life of future generations."
