Speaker 1 (00:00):
Well, a new study is out about another man made crisis.
This time the threat is mass extinction. Yeah. Handful of
scientists say that humans have damaged the Earth's ecosystem so
horribly that we are headed for the biggest mass extension
since the dinosaurs were wiped out sixty six million years ago.
These scientists claim two species vanished every year, over two

(00:23):
hundred in the last century. Of the seventy seven species
of mammals have experienced a serious drop in population now.
Co author of the study is the disgraced Stanford professor
Paul Erlick. He says the asteroid that hit Earth wiping
out the dinosaurs was not making a choice, but the
coming mass extinction is the result of human choice over

(00:46):
population over consumption by the rich. Erlick complains that wildlife
habitats have been plowed under and paved, replaced by buildings
and strip malls. Of course Amazon is going to fix that.
Of course, this crisis come with a deadline. The study
gives us only two or three decades to straighten the
problem out, or else we're done. Mass extension will be

(01:08):
so far gone we won't be able to recover. Let
me turn back the hands of time ninety eight. That's
what a young scientist named Paul Erlike wrote the population bomb.
He predicted the population would double and the Earth would
not have the resources to sustain it. So we wiped
out twenty years ago by starvation. Except there's more of
us here than ever populations doubled. Erlick is full of it.
