Since the Endangered Species Act became law, ~1.36 million species have gone extinct.
It’s funny how easily we speak of humanity’s “salvation” while driving every other form of life off the planet.

Adaptability keeps species alive….until there’s nowhere left to adapt to. Desert lions turned to the sea to survive, but as oceans empty, that refuge will fade. Flexibility means nothing without biodiversity.

An American colleague told me about an elbows up experience he had in Canada. He asked the bartender what kind of bourbon she had.
The woman replied, "Honey, as long as that orange asshole is in power, you will never get a drink of bourbon here."

The insect chart below is for 2008-2018. We lost half of all insects in 10 years. Everything has only accelerated since 2018.
The UK lost 63% of ALL insects in just 3 years. The US lost 80% of all bees in just 8 MONTHS.

It's funny to think that my preference for urban living in areas with dense, mixed-used, walkable neighborhoods, multi-family housing, small businesses, and diversity probably stems from Sesame Street. Like an early education in Jane Jacob's urbanist theories.
