Animal Extinction

Between 1960 and 2000, the human population `throughout the world has doubled, but the animal population has declined by 30%. This is an overwhelming fact, yet it is a staggering reality that will only get more atrocious If the human race continues to act in this self-centered way that is a cycle that has been going on for centuries. Human requisites should not be prioritized over the requisites of animals and the planet because this will disrupt the delicate balance of the ecosystem and will eventually lead to the annihilation of the planet and the human race. Harmony is needed in everything, including our planet, to function so we can live on it. Ever since humans came on Earth, they have been dominating over the other living creatures.

Without even knowing the consequences of what the result will be

Humans are therefore putting their numerous wants before the needs of the animals, and that is making a carnage of the animals and the milieu, which humans need to survive, whether they acknowledge it, or not.

It also reveals that this formidable climate change could become a stark reality if humans continue to focus on their self-centered needs before the vital needs of the planet. Thus, humans still concentrate on
