“In total, 1 million of an estimated 8 million animal and plant species worldwide are threatened with extinction as a result of habitat loss, exploitation of nature, climate change, pollution, and invasive alien species, according to the 2019 Global Assessment by the Intergovernmental Science-Policy Platform on Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services (IPBES).* The report says many of these species may become extinct within decades, and it notes the “current rate of global species extinction is [tens to hundreds of times] higher compared to average over the last 10 million years, and the rate is accelerating.”
“Nature is declining globally at rates unprecedented in human history,” says the press statement about the report, which was authored by 145 experts representing 50 nations, in addition to 310 other contributing authors. It notes a huge percentage of species are threatened, including one-third of marine mammals and 40 percent of amphibians.”
