Cheetahs Fast Running To Extinction As Cub Trade Thrives by Nick Perry
A century ago, there were an estimated 100,000 cheetahs worldwide. Today barely 7,000 remain, their numbers slashed by human encroachment and habitat destruction. The steady plunder of cubs from the wild to satisfy the pet trade only compounds this decline. More than 3,600 live cheetahs were illegally traded worldwide in the decade to December 2019, […]

Introduced Birds Are Not Replacing Roles Of Human-Caused Extinct Species: Study by University College London
Human-caused bird extinctions are driving losses of functional diversity on islands worldwide, and the gaps they leave behind are not being filled by introduced (alien) species, finds a new study led by UCL and University of Gothenburg researchers. The study, published in Science Advances, shows how human impacts such as habitat destruction and climate change […]
Northern White Rhino Retired From World-First Breeding Project
Scientists attempting to bring back the near-extinct northern white rhinoceros announced Thursday they would stop harvesting eggs from one of two remaining live specimens involved in an unprecedented breeding programme. Citing risk and safety reasons, scientific consortium Biorescue said it had decided to retire the older of the two females, 32-year-old Najin, as a donor […]
The Hardwick Alliance For Real Ecology (HARE)
‘Holistic in outlook, pragmatic in action’HARE was formed in February 2020 at Hardwick House, Whitchurch-on-Thames in Oxfordshire, with the task of creating a united and purposeful front to expose, challenge and reverse our present deeply oppressive, corrupted and degraded political and economic systems. Our country’s ancient freedoms are now under threat like never before as […]

What The World Rejected: Hitler’s Peace Offers by Friedrich Stieve
Germany’s enemies maintain today [1940] that Adolf Hitler is the greatest disturber of peace known to history, that he threatens every nation with sudden attack and oppression, that he has created a terrible war machine in order to bring misery and devastation everywhere. At the same time they intentionally conceal an all-important fact: they themselves […]
Study Shows Impacts Of Deforestation And Forest Burning On Biodiversity In The Amazon by Daniel Stolte
A new study, co-authored by University of Arizona researchers and published in the Sept. 1 issue of Nature, provides the first quantitative assessment of how environmental policies on deforestation, along with forest fires and drought, have impacted the diversity of plants and animals in the Amazon. Researchers used records of more than 14,500 plant and […]
Birds Of Prey Face Global Decline From Habitat Loss, Poisons by Christina Larson
Despite a few high-profile conservation success stories—like the dramatic comeback of bald eagle populations in North America—birds of prey are in decline worldwide. A new analysis of data from the International Union for the Conservation of Nature and BirdLife International found that 30% of 557 raptor species worldwide are considered near threatened, vulnerable or endangered […]
LED Streetlights Contribute To Insect Population Declines: Study by Douglas Boyes
Streetlights—particularly those that use white light-emitting diodes (LEDs)—not only disrupt insect behavior but are also a culprit behind their declining numbers, a new study carried out in southern England showed Wednesday. The results were eye-opening, with a 47 percent reduction in insect population at the hedgerow sites and 37 percent reduction at the roadside grassy […]
Pollinators: First Global Risk Index For Species Declines And Effects On Humanity by University of Cambridge
Disappearing habitats and use of pesticides are driving the loss of pollinator species around the world, posing a threat to “ecosystem services” that provide food and wellbeing to many millions—particularly in the Global South—as well as billions of dollars in crop productivity. This is according to an international panel of experts, led by the University […]
Humans Could Recolonize Earth After Mass Extinctions With Ectogenesis by Matthew R. Edwards
I suggest there is a way to save humanity and Earth life, not only from our present follies but from most or all of the natural disasters too—even ones in the far future. You might imagine this to be even more unlikely than the absurd rescue missions in apocalypse movies. Yet the critical first steps […]
Study Confirms Ancient Spanish Cave Art Was Made By Neanderthals
Neanderthals, long perceived to have been unsophisticated and brutish, really did paint stalagmites in a Spanish cave more than 60,000 years ago, according to a study published on Monday. The issue had roiled the paleoarchaeology community ever since the publication of a 2018 paper attributing red ocher pigment found on the stalagmitic dome of Cueva […]
Earth’s ‘Vital Signs’ Worsening As Humanity’s Impact Deepens by Patrick Galey
“Policies to combat the climate crisis or any other symptoms should address their root cause: human overexploitation of the planet.” They said increasing ocean deoxygenation and warming waters were threatening warm-water coral reefs, upon which half a billion people rely for food, income and storm protection. Both ocean heat and global sea levels set new […]
