    The Sixth Extinction Elizabeth Korbert Summary

    Humans are the reason for the sixth extinction. Species are dropping at an incredibly fast rate. This is mostly because of climate change and ocean acidification affecting the planets biodiversity. As the climate changes animals are unable to adapt. For an example as the earth begins to warm, ice begins to melt, which will cause major harm for animals, including us.

    Sandra Steingraber's Essay One In Eight US

    What is the world going to be like in the next 20 years? Will we still see the same animals as we see today? As a nation, the impact on the environment that we have is a very substantial amount. But what about individually impacting the environment? Many people believe that they have a little impact, so many people don’t think they need be conscious about the impact they have on the world’s animals and environment. If the world would realize that a one person, with a little impact they can join together and have 7.3 billion people having a small impact. With that big of an impact, the world would be a better living space and the future generations will get to enjoy the animals on the verge of extinction. Sandra Steingraber is an ecologist and…

    The Sixth Extinction: Book Review

    Elizabeth Kolbert wrote The Sixth Extinction as an attempt to explain and give examples of what seems to be a 6th extinction event currently happening in the modern world. We have discussed and learned about five other extinction events throughout this semester, and Kolbert pushes this 6th extinction event as a new rapid extinction predominantly caused by humans. One of the underlying causes of this 6th extinction event discussed in the book is the mass killing of both animals and humans. Another underlying cause of this extinction event discussed in the book, which is probably more prevalent now than ever before, is climate change caused by humans. This book goes chapter by chapter giving examples of various species that are on the verge of going…

    Analysis Of John Leslie: The Idea Of Human Extinction

    The idea of human extinction has been circulating a lot the past two decades and it just so happens many believe we may play a role in it. John Leslie covers multiple scenarios in his paper that he deems quite plausible. The saying that curiosity killed the cat could not be more true, except we are likely going to be the cat. Our constant curiosity and need to manipulate what should not be manipulated will likely be the end of the human race; nuclear weapons, manipulating diseases, artificial foods, etc. Leslie covers many of the scenarios but one that seems to be a major byproduct and what I believe to be the most likely is some catastrophic event due to climate change. Elon Musk, calls what we are doing with fossil fuels and pollution, the…
