You Be the One Who Donates
We need supporters any way we can get them. We engaged in a day-to-day struggle to actually report the news. Like any other organization we need funding. We want you to be the one who steps up, not someone else, you.
To those of you who are already donors we are indebted to you and we know it. To those of you on low or fixed incomes, spreading the word by forwarding articles really does work, and that is greatly appreciated too.
Thank you in advance.

Why You Should Care About the Current Wave of Mass Extinctions
Gianluca Serra, Mongabay
Serra writes: "The scientific imprimatur fell on us just six months ago: Yes, the extinction crisis we are witnessing is only the beginning of a wave of mass ecocide of non-human life on Earth, a process that could wipe out a million species of plants and animals from our planet in the short term (read: decades)."

EXCERPT:
he scientific imprimatur fell on us just six months ago: Yes, the extinction crisis we are witnessing is only the beginning of a wave of mass ecocide of non-human life on Earth, a process that could wipe out a million species of plants and animals from our planet in the short term (read: decades).
About 15 thousand scientific studies (!) support this terrifying conclusion, as it can be read in the assessment report produced by the independent UN Intergovernmental Science-Policy Platform for Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services (IPBES).
