Human beings are accelerating the destruction of nature, and more than 7,000 new endangered species have been added globally.

  • 2019-11-14

Human destruction of nature is accelerating, with over 7,000 more species added to the world's Red List of Threatened Species on the 18th. The International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) warned that human destruction of nature is causing species to face extinction at an "unprecedented" rate. The IUCN, the world's most important wildlife conservation organization, stated that from the rainforest canopy to the deep sea, representative species of primates, rays, fish, and trees are now listed as "critically endangered." The IUCN currently tracks over 105,000 species globally, of which approximately 28,000 are endangered. While individual biotas face specific threats, human activities such as overfishing and deforestation are the biggest contributors to the sharp decline in biodiversity. "Nature is dying at an unprecedented rate in human history," said Grethel Aguilar, Acting Director General of the IUCN. "We must recognize this fact; protecting biodiversity is in our interest." The IUCN has now listed several marine and freshwater fish species as "Critically Endangered," the highest level of endangerment on its Red List, with the next step being to list them as extinct. Among them, the wedgefish and giant guitarfish are currently the most endangered marine species. The new list also includes seven endangered primates, such as the Roloway monkey, which lives in Ivory Coast and Ghana, with a current wild population of less than 2,000. The endangerment of primates is mainly attributed to human hunting and severe habitat loss caused by the conversion of forests into farmland. The IUCN points out that 40% of primates in West and Central Africa are now threatened with extinction. Source: Environmental Information Centre (2019/07/21)
