The theme of the day: One million species endangered
Uno experts raise alarm: Up to one million animal and plant species are threatened with extinction. This is evident from the report of the World Biodiversity Council (IPBES), which was presented in Paris.
Whether amphibians, mammals, birds, reptiles or fish - land, water and air species are affected if there are no major changes in land use, environmental protection and mitigation of climate change. Read details from the report of conservation experts here.
Thus, man-made earth heating alone could wipe out around five percent of species if the threshold of two degrees Celsius of global temperature increase is exceeded. 99 percent of coral reefs would most likely die in such a development. As the most important factor in the extinction of species, the report names the effects of agriculture.
Species extinction is more dangerous than climate change. People need to take back, writes my colleague Philip Bethge.
The world is on its way to ecological insolvency, writes my colleague Christian Schwägerl in his commentary.
