Anyone else fed up with that question?

Especially with this definition: "All animals, including humans, have developed a wide range of capabilities so they can succeed in the environment they live in...We’re all using our brains: that’s intelligent"... when humans are so dramatically failing!
Are animals smart? From dolphin language to toolmaking crows, lots of species have obvious intelligence
Many animals show signs of high intelligence, including strong memory, self-awareness and communication skills.

"Many of our... leaders are scientifically illiterate... Problems arise when they choose not to seek the counsel of those who understand the science...
And some seek to rubbish the science...
Making policy based on prejudice rather than facts does every one of us a disservice..".
Our leaders must listen to scientists on climate change – or face catastrophe
Almost 20 years ago, An Inconvenient Truth highlighted the risks of climate change. Two decades on, these truths are even more inconvenient.

I am sorry - this is not an easy video to watch
Imagine if every hour - you had 10,000 humans lined up and cut off their arms and then threw them into the sea to die in agony
This is what is happening to sharks every hour
