Birth Right is for All!!


Fact sheet says that globally there are 14million life forms. Of which only 10% has been described by science so far.

Invasion of human and his depredations made the extinction rate 40,000 (approx) times higher than the background (during last 200 million years, about 100 species became extinct in each century).

A disappearing plant can take with it 10-30 dependant species such as insects, higher animals and even other plants.

We may already be losing 100 species a day.

Human species now use 40% of planet’s annual net photosynthesis production.

The exploitation of natural resources by human should be limited. Poaching, hunting and deforestation should be considered as alarming acts. All biodiversities must be protected and enhance its growth. THE WORLD NEED TO ACT QUIKLY TO COUNTER THE EROSION OF SPECIES.

Human thinks that all natural resources was made for him. Human is a social animal. Like the human as a species (sapiens), we have 14million species. The natural resource is for all the organisms. As the civilization grows, the need grows and it starts with utilization of resources and ends with exploitation.

Global warming, Ozone layer depletion are primarily caused by CO2 gases where human plays a prime role.

Other environmental threats such as recent Gulf disaster (Oil leak), Chernobyl nuclear disaster, Three Mile Island disaster, Bhopal’s Union Carbide India Ltd disaster are also accelerating the species erosion.
