bsmall2> It's a fair assumption that every human being, real human beings, flesh and blood ones, not corporations, but every flesh and blood human being is a moral person. You know, we've got the same genes, we're more or less the same, but our nature, the nature of humans, allows all kinds of behaviour. I mean, every one of us under some circumstances could be a gas chamber attendant and a saint.

"Up to 40% of Iceland was covered in forest when the Vikings arrived in the ninth century, but more than a millennium of deforestation and sheep farming has resulted in significant desertification. Advocates say the lupin is helping. But Óskarsdóttir says it is not so simple."

Researchers find the link between human activity and shifting weather patterns in western North America
Western North America seems to be experiencing more extreme weather events more frequently. From scorching droughts to torrential floods, the climate is changing rapidly, with no signs of slowing down. From 2011 to 2015, California and neighboring states experienced extended periods of drought, while 2017 saw heavy rains trigger catastrophic floods.

Researchers identify human activities as drivers of biodiversity decline in central Mexico's reserves
New research shows the diversity of plant and animal life in 14 tropical reserves in Mesoamerica has plummeted since 1990 as roads and cattle ranches have expanded into protected areas. Large mammals, birds, and reptiles are disappearing, while disease-carrying insects and rodents are on the rise.
