Conservationist Gives Up

Filed under:  — cyberhobo at 7:39 pm

The main job from here on out, according to Professor Tim Halliday, will be to document species as they are lost so they aren’t forgotten.

The reality is that many thousands of species will become extinct in the near future; so perhaps it is time to face this reality and to replace the ‘conservation paradigm’ with the ‘extinction paradigm’.

On the up side, this is Earth’s sixth major episode of extinction, so maybe it’s not all our fault.
