I live by wetlands & a wildlife preserve. We have egrets, blue heron, anhinga, Limpkins, eagles, fox, fresh water otter, deer, alligators, etc. All this beautiful land has been sold to a greedy developer who has clear cut to make way for homes that are put up quickly & are poorly constructed. The history in this & other countries is, as coheirs to this planet, we have no regard for wildlife either in the sea or on land.
Something has to be done quickly by the world leaders. Instead of rounds of discussion, start doing something.
Anything. Before our wildlife become extinct like the carrier pigeon - Mitchener wrote the sun was blacked as hundreds, thousands of carrier pigeons flew. God help us that we don't end up like the world Charlotte McConaghy wrote so brilliantly in her book Migrations.
