World 'losing battle against extinctions'

We can argue but our planet is dying.

It is important to keep political disputes in perspective. Humans are treating the fauna and flora of the Earth with terrible arrogance. In a very real way, this is the big picture. We are literally killing the planet for the purpose of consumerism. Giving a public talk in London, a US expert said yesterday that most species will become extinct without the human race ever knowing about their existence in the first place.

In any case, the question arises, for how long can this go process go on, before the planet takes its revenge, and we become extinct?
