Who Will Speak For The Animals?
https://www.donotpanic.news/p/who-will-speak-for-the-animalsWild animal populations are in free-fall, the average population size now nearly 75% smaller than just fifty years ago.Road building on a gigantic scale had shattered the Earth’s land into 600,000 fragments, most of which are too small to support significant wildlife. Researchers said that virtually all of western Europe, the eastern US and Japan have no areas at all with a boundary of more than 1km on either side of a road. Into this already shattered landscape, the length of the world’s roads is projected to increase more than 60% by 2050.It is a moral abomination to suggest that millions of species should be subjugated to the whims of a singular species exerting full-spectrum dominance over our one shared planet.To my mind the most profoundly ethical question human society can ask itself is how billions of living beings who have no agency to physically alter their world can live safely alongside the one species that does.
