In 2015 a biologist from Alaska told me about the ~40,000 seabirds that had all starved to death, at ground zero on his bay, in a matter of weeks. He had been studying these murres for years, and he cried as he described the horror of it all. It was the start of the 4,000,000 bird die-off, which was apparently not newsworthy.
I don’t remember many conversations in my life, but this silenced alarm hit hard, because I saw that our mass extinction had arrived.
We should have been working as hard on climate change as we did on covid.
I really hope we can still save most of it.
Didnt millions more people die than necessary in the US thanks to covid? Seems like were working equally as hard here
I’m talking world wide.
In my country in Europe, roads were almost completely empty for example. A lot of unnecessary production lines were also halted.
