Stop Animal Extinction

The myth of pet overpopulation is a huge campaign that’s considered truth nationwide. The National Animal Interest Alliance (NAIA) explains this myth and why it’s used. Activists use the myth to put all blame of animal shelter death on breeders. Radical groups perpetuate this myth by making breeding restrictions. This myth is the biggest cause of euthanizing healthy, adoptable animals. Per year, about 3.1 million dogs are adopted while 2.1 million are euthanized. However, this number for euthanized dogs is not broken down by reasoning for euthanization. Overpopulation propagandists often claims this number reaches over 6 million each year. While shelters heavily euthanize adoptable dogs and breeders increasingly use puppy mills, each area across

Extinction: A Radical History is a book published by writer, professor and activist Ashley Dawson. It was published on the 22nd of April 2016. Dawson talks about multiple broad subjects in his book like how Capitalism is the main source of mass extinction. By doing so, he takes into account the lengthy history of the Homo Sapiens species, their activities and their discoveries and how us, humans, have affected today’s biodiversity, and probably the future of our planet Earth. He also offers solutions but are they realistically possible? Today, we no longer face natural risks like asteroids and comets. As Dawson states we now face anthropogenic risks like climate change and biodiversity loss which leads to a change in the earth’s ecosystem.

Since the birth of humanity, humans have deeply relied on nature. From the food that is consumed to the water that is drunk, all of it was provided by nature. As time proceeds, humanity has grown proportionally with its expansion and consumption. It is believed by many that the tipping point at which nature can sustain humanity will be reached. The only way to help nature is the extinction of the leach that feed off it, which means the extinction of humanity. Human extinction is necessary for the survival of nature. With the constant energy usage, expansion (migration), and population growth, extinction is seen as the only way to help the environment and save what has given us life to begin with. With the growth of cities and conversion of forests to homes, nature has no way to help itself. Thus, being the only living creature consciously able to react on nature’s behalf, it is the responsibility of humanity to save nature.

Plants and animals (humans) are dying everyday due to too much CO2 and they might one day be gone forever. The issue is that there is too much CO2 going into the atmosphere. The reasons I have is that habitats are shrinking, Global Warming is causing to many problems, and rising temperatures. I hope you will be convinced and warned what is happening to this world.

It is irrational and unnecessary to use animals as a means to an end. It can be prevented.

Although data for terrestrial species is not as complete as for marine species, there is evidence to show that terrestrial life was also severely impacted. The End Permian Extinction is the only one known to have caused the mass extinction of insects; 8 out of the 27 insect orders known to have persisted during the early Phanerozoic eon did not survive past the Permian-Triassic

One reason animal cruelty should stop is because it can cause the animal’s population to decrease.

Global warming has been a controversial topic for years and some have even denied its existence; however, as more studies are being published every day in regards to our changing climate, it is hard to ignore this growing issue and how humans contribute to it. The term greenhouse gases refers to the group of gases that are primarily responsible for global warming and chief among these gases is carbon dioxide. Rising carbon dioxide levels can be attributed to a combination of burning fossil fuels such as coal, natural gas, and petroleum as well as deforestation in general ( Source A). To slow the effects of global warming, it is important for leaders in our society to consider their greenhouse gas emissions, especially carbon dioxide, and make

Animals are pure,innocent, and natural. They don’t do anything except for their basic needs for survival. They for one, have done nothing to us. When they are taken away from their natural habitat, People show that they are the ones to blame. People should stop for the reason they need to prove they are not the unfair ones instead, learn to be at peace with each other

A clear analysis shows that extinction has occurred so much, that they do not only list the animals, they have to list a broader and more general title, meaning extinction is so worst that writing the names of the animals' name will be too much, and writing the whole broad title will include thousands of animals under one title. With 41% amphibian, 26% of mammal species and 13% of birds. It is extremely alarming. And the extinction only includes the species that has been found and labeled by us, there are much more species that have not been discovered if any of those species goes extinct we would have never known they existed in the first place. The fact that the sixth extinction is compared to the mass extinction of wipe out that happened

Global populations of wildlife, from birds and mammals to reptiles and amphibians, have declined by 58% between 1970 and 2012, stated from the World Wildlife Fund (WWF). Animals which live in lakes, rivers, and freshwater systems have declined the most in populations at an 81% declination.

Since the beginning of life itself, some species have lived and prospered while other species have gone extinct never to be seen again by mankind. Because of this, some would claim that extinction is natural and not significantly problematic to the world that we live in. Others, however, understand that due to climate change, habitat loss, and poaching, more and more species are becoming endangered which leads to a chain reaction that can be devastating to ecosystems. Species such as the Chinook salmon, gorillas, tropical sharks, and polar bears are all directly affected by climate change, species such as northern spotted owls, Sumatran tigers, and lemurs are greatly harmed due to habitat loss, and species such as the sea turtle, Javan rhinoceros, African elephant, and the Red-Fronted Macaw are all affected by poaching driving them all closer and closer to becoming extinct.

Have you ever wondered what it would be like to see a living Woolly Mammoth? Well I am strongly against bringing animals back through a process called de-extinction. Scientists should not bring animals back to life for many reasons. Three reasons why I believe this are: ecosystems have changed since the extinct animal was alive, we won’t care if we kill other species because we can just revive them, and de-extinction has unforeseen consequences (Jurassic Park). These reasons are why I do not support de-extinction.

There have been five well known extinctions on this earth. The one most well known is the mass extinction that ended the dinosaurs. Mass extinction is often described as the elimination of a large number of species in a short period of time. Despite what many think, the elimination of species is almost commonplace at this point. The Earth is currently in the middle of a sixth mass extinction, and it’s been caused by the human race.

In order for us to help the wildlife during global warming we need to decrease the amount of pollution we put in the air. We can do this by reducing the amount of energy we use and how many times we use our vehicles in a day. We could also stop littering and start recycling. Land development is also a cause. All of these ways can lead to deterioration of certain species’ habitats. This is a serious problem and i want to persuade and and inform you what we can do to stop it and how it is affecting everyday life lives all the way to to the littlest things to the biggest thing. Global warming is growing at a faster and faster rate. Society thinks global warming is not a big deal and is okay with it. Nobody should be okay with this. Global warming is a horrible way of how we treat yourself, our planet, and the animals.
