Yep, I'm not going to say our poor use of land is the only problem BUT it is a significant part of it and exacerbates many other interconnected problems. The main problem with our land use especially in North America has to do with SPRAWL. The cause of which is poor, outdated zoning practices that make it nearly illegal to build densely and efficiently and instead basically encourage developers to build less dense single family detached homes way out into the suburbs and therefore have to build more roads and utilities to reach them and where everyone has to be car dependent. #strongtowns #notjustbikes

I know one thing. Typing pretty little platitudes in the comments on your phone about how selfish and evil people are isn't going to help the cause. What do you suppose the carbon footprint of broadcasting this story is? I mean 60 Minutes had to shoot, produce and edit it, then upload it to KZread. KZread has to host servers for us to watch it. We have to buy physical devices and some type of internet service to be able to view and comment on it. How much electricity do you think that takes?

Yeah, the sun being duller four decades ago in your area would almost certainly have had something to do with a huge amount of local airborne pollution. It's supposed to be a cool-white. That's why cool-white colour temperature lighting keeps you awake: your eyes are processing it as daylight. As for sunburn, white people are built for regions far from the equator where sunlight is greatly reduced for much of the year. You burn because you're living in a region that sees drastically more sunlight than your genetic profile is built to handle. Put on some sunblock, or a long-sleeved shirt and a floppy hat.

It's so frustrating that people are not responding in a strong enough way to the threats we are facing with our rapidly warming planet. Instead, people are harping on the border, hairstyles and closing drag shows, as if those things are so much more dire. From what I've seen, reacting to the warming climate is about 100 years too late, anyway.

Growing up in the Northwest Georgia area in the 1960s, our home had many shade trees surrounding it: oak, walnut, cedar, and hickory. One thing that remained a constant in our day to day life was the many varied bird species whose songs we heard from sunrise to sunset. After my retirement I recently moved back home to help care for our elderly mother. The trees were still there, but the birds and their beautiful songs were almost nonexistent; greatly diminished. I listened over the summer nights for the chirping of the crickets I so vividly remembered from my youth. In both instances, the silence has been deafening.

First, Cut down all the trees ( regardless of how old, majestic because we don’t want to deal with maintenance). Next, don’t worry about your trash, just throw it wherever you please! -That can be someone else’s problem! Lastly, Can’t say anything about any of these actions because that would be “racist”!

Immigrants might not live the way you do, but to blame them is not only racist...it just isn't true.

The narrator (who does a good job) notes that "the World Wildlife Federation says that the abundance of wildlife in Latin America has fallen by 94% since the 1970s - but it is also in Latin America that we found the possibility of hope" (7:53-8:03). Hard to see how a 94% devastation can augur hope! At that amount of loss the ecosystem has already been changed forever, I would think.
Nearly everyone who watches this will go on consuming and procreating just as they always have. Nearly all of them hope that others will make the sacrifices to save humanity. And they know that equation won't work. It is a good time to be old.

Where I grew up near Heidelberg, Germany, you were not allowed to swim in the river due to chemical pollution and many birds and mammals were nearly extinct, due to overuse of soil and too much chemical furtilizer. It is much better now due to several things : the farmers were forced by law to leave half a meter of soil as a fringe around their fields, plant hedges and trees as windbreaks and strongly reduce the nitrogen content and weed and insect sprays. The result is that wildflowers, bees, many old plants came back, as well as pheasants, storks and many birds like the green woodpecker and some we thought extrinct. The farmers, one was a classmate, were pleasantly surprised that the soil quality got much better due to changes, simply by mixing cultures and the above. Just saying that there are things humans can do to reverse some of the damage.

Just like the story the old man tells in the film, Apocalypto… And a Man sat alone, drenched deep in sadness. And all the animals drew near to him and said, "We do not like to see you so sad. Ask us for whatever you wish and you shall have it." The Man said, "I want to have good sight." The vulture replied, "You shall have mine." The Man said, "I want to be strong." The jaguar said, "You shall be strong like me." Then the Man said, "I long to know the secrets of the earth." The serpent replied, "I will show them to you." And so it went with all the animals. And when the Man had all the gifts that they could give, he left. Then the owl said to the other animals, "Now the Man knows much, he'll be able to do many things. Suddenly I am afraid." The deer said, "The Man has all that he needs. Now his sadness will stop." But the owl replied, "No. I saw a hole in the Man, deep like a hunger he will never fill. It is what makes him sad and what makes him want. He will go on taking and taking, until one day the World will say, 'I am no more and I have nothing left to give.'"

The easiest argument not brought up by this featured episode is the decline bee polinization. Which is vital for agriculture. No bioma for bees to thrive , no polinization. Thus famine takes place. Coursework in schools need to train pupils in understanding biology and echology, hidrology, nutrition. At the elementary level , or at least until high school.

Living in Flagstaff, AZ since 1970 and having seen wildlife decline over the years, and especially over the last 5 years, I have seen a marked decrease in the insect population. At night we used to have bats and swarms of insects flying around our street lights, and around our home lights. Not much anymore, and driving during the day, it was common 5 or more years ago that one had to clean off the windshields of smashed bugs, hardly now. And the bird population? I have been feeding wild birds in my yard for 20 years. I would buy a bag of feed every week. Over the last 5 years a marked decline, and as of the last two years now only one bag per in over a month. Flocks of sparrows have vanished, and I see only a few birds. Of course it is most likely due to the "Bird Flu." But let us look at the so called "Bird Flu" and its origins having emerged from China. The Bird Flu was was not caused by human intent directly, but by crowding birds, ducks, and chickens in feed houses, where they packed close together. A primary situation where pathogens can flourish. So that said, the "Bird Flu" epidemic is due to our demand to have ducks, chickens, and other birds for feed stock. Everything we are doing points to our demise. It will all come crashing down on us if we do not change our ways. And all of this is first caused by our overpopulation, and then our demand for the energy to sustain the ever increasing population. We have one earth, but to sustain us now we need five.... And these mass extinctions, the decline of many species is revealing to us that our end may be next.

We are endangered, too. The lower species that we are driving to extinction are interconnected and we to them each depends on the other, especially those on the top of the so called "food chain" of which includes humanity. We are the only species ever to have evolved, with the intelligence to inflict self-extinction. So much for evolution in evolving us... Unless there is God to save us... At this point it looks like we are doomed. Oh, but the planet will recover as it has after every mass extinction. The natural process of evolution will try again for another species line that is not as intelligent as we now think we are.

And cleaning of the front grill of cars was something people had to spend a chunk of time doing. The loss of insects means the collapse of the food chain on land.

Once they get here, they start or join animal habitat protection “non profits”… then tell others how they can’t live there or close to them because of “animal habitat”. Meanwhile they build huge “rustic” structures and tear up the habitat to put in modern manicured landscaping. Tell the locals where they can and can’t hunt, even though hunters know the area and populations and how to control it and keep a healthy strong population. They also only hunt for food usually. No matter what, all the animal is harvested for food. They also have the biggest, most expensive SUVs and maybe have 1 child, 2 at the most.. that’s taken care of by a Mexican nanny. Some only stay at these huge estates 1 month of the year at most. Their monthly electric bill is more than most peoples rent, and that’s them not even living there full time.

People tend to only show concern when major events or personal circumstances affect them. As humans, we often prioritize our own interests and fail to extend the same level of care and concern to others. This raises the question: why is it so hard to care for others? Perhaps it's because there's no monetary reward for doing so. However, if we want to make the world a better place, we need to start caring more. Though it may be challenging, it's important to start taking action now. After all, if we don't start now, when will we?

Fast forward 2006 and I moved back home to care for the land.

I've lived in my current home in the northeast US for around 50 years. In that time, I've seen 90% of bird species disappear, wildlife which used to be plentiful is now rarely seen, and although I grown plants which usually attract bees, few ever show up anymore. Half the trees have been cut down in the area because people don't want to deal with falling leaves and pine cones, and wetlands are slowly being destroyed (illegally). Small forests in the area have disappeared, and houses are being built in their place. There's no political will to face this kind of situation, and try to reverse it. People, in general, just don't care, or bury their heads in the sand, thinking that we will somehow magically survive the coming crises. I've been discussing population explosion for decades hoping that people will take it seriously, and what I've found out is that most people are too attached to gross consumerism without any thought to the inevitable consequences of their actions. At this point, I'm convinced that the only solution will be that nature will take care the problem, and we'll see more disease and famine, leading to another deadly world war... and that time may not be as far away as we think.

We really have to give it everything we’ve got. I don’t own much property. I own a quarter of an acre, a common plot. We plant wildflowers in our front and backyards. We moved here in 2013 and have seen a significant decline in the number of butterflies that visit every year. I have not counted though, so I could not offer up my observations as an official study. But I can tell you in the nine years that I’ve been here that we don’t see anywhere near the number that we used to just nine years ago. Between direct observation or from the security cameras that we have, we probably saw around 10 maybe 15 butterflies this year. In fairness, we were not observing 24 hours a day. It is entirely possible that millions of years of butterflies decided to travel a different route. I find that improbable though. I also have heard similar stories of people that have watched wildlife disappear. Similar experiences through direct observation. I don’t know any of these people and I am not conspiring with them to bring the electric car into production or whatever conspiracy holds true today.

One of my daughters just really likes frogs. Whenever we go camping or in the forest or at a river, she's looking for them. She brought a bunch of them home. Put them in the front yard. They made a lot of noise. My neighbor complained, because our place had no frogs. That was about three years ago. Now they're all over the neighborhood. They have moved down the hill to a more wet area. You can hear them especially after the rain.
I have been a practical conservationist all my life. I have kept honey bees for nearly 30 years. They tell an interesting story. I have seen the destruction of habitat, the damage from unfettered use of pesticides, the over fishing by both native and commercial fishing operations to name a few issues over the many decades of my life. I'm also pragmatic. The earth has experienced 5 prior mass extinctions. I haven't heard anyone talk about the negative effects of those 5 events. After all, if they had not occurred we wouldn't even be here. We are only concerned about the one happening now. Why? Some will say because we need to protect the helpless species as though we were smart enough to do that which we have categorically demonstrated we are not. If we are honest, the real reason we are concerned about it is because it is a threat to US individually. The earth has recovered with a massive explosion of new life after each extinctions so we can't logically say that it is that we are concerned about wiping out life permanently. Time will resolve any problems we create and new life will flourish again just as it has every other time. So it's really all about us and our selfishness. The earth doesn't need our help. We need the earths help and we need to take care of it if we want to continue. In 600 years nobody is going to give a flip about you or what you did or didn't do. You won't even be remembered. In 60,000 years the earth will be rather different than what it is now regardless of what you do or we do as a species. In a million years our species, if we don't wipe ourselves out, will not be recognizable or bear any resemblance to what we are now. So lets be honest and admit that any concern we have is really about us. Maybe then we can quit blaming everyone else and look at our own lives and see how each of us make decisions every day that are the real source of the problem. How much water do I use? How much energy do I waste? What foods do I eat? What housing do I consume? What do I throw away that could be recycled? Why do I have to fly in a jet 3000 miles to find a place to have fun? If your answer is because everyone else does it and my contribution is too minor to count, then YOU are the problem.

Not sure we have a population problem but more of a problem with living in excess. We consume more than we need and this causes an increased strain on resources.

This planet can only hold so many humans. You can be in denial all you want, but over population is causing the consumption problem.
Meanwhile, if the entire world population lived in Texas, we would still be less crowded than New York City. Texas has over 268,000 square miles of land for a planet of 8 billion-plus people. That would equate to approximately 30,000 people per square mile. Manhattan, on the other hand, boasts 67,000 people per square mile! That leaves us with a world population packed in Texas, with plenty of room for tourists.😊
It's crazy to think. Just in my 50 year lifetime, the population went from 3.5 to 8 billion people. Staggering. Especially considering after the plague in the 1300's, the estimated world population was only 500 million.

THAT statistic was demonstrated to be blatantly wrong long ago, composed mostly of species not actually known to exist. The story is a beat up, just another reason not to watch 60 minutes.
Another worry for mankind is that of oxygen depletion. When i was a child in the 1960's our atmosphere contained 24% oxygen. Today 60 years later that figure is down to 20%. We are using oxygen faster than nature can replace it. But still we destroy the things that produce it. 8 billion of us, with our lifestyles, are heading for extinction within the next 100 years.

What have we (humans) done?! I remember looking through my Childcraft years ago and was saddened by all of these animals that had gone already extinct... always wondered what they were like? How did they look and interact in reality? How did this happen and why? Why couldn't they be saved? Why didn't we do something? How is it possible? Thought humans learned from their mistakes. Never thought I would witness history in the making 😢.... It breaks my heart, my soul to know that the future will never know, never experience the beauty and the majesty of the animal kingdom and nature. That, like me, back then, they too will have to look through a book and wonder....😢

Humanity in Our World Have to Unite to Save Ourselves and Our World 🙏
I'm 72 and the world population has nearly TRIPLED during my lifetime so I chose to not father any children for just this reason. We passed population sustainability decades ago and now it is only a matter of how many of the other species we share this planet with will be left when the human population finally declines. I've lived very modestly and spent many years paddling, backpacking, bicycle touring and sailing in remote areas and have witnessed a significant decline in wildlife. Habitat loss is the major reason for this extinction event.

I live here in New Zealand. It is essentially a massive island and growing up it was absolutely magical! Like everything was explored and surprising! The main thing that made me realise the rapid biodiversity decline was the lack of colours , especially in our rock pools at the beaches. They no longer look pretty and colourful, they are mostly green life now and not much life can be seen. The same is true when diving our reefs. I’m very sad that my kids and grandkids won’t get to see and feel this biodiversity brilliance 😢 It was truly breathtaking 🌏💚✨
