I am writing this story to share how humans civilization impacted the life of animals and plants in a horrible way. Back then the normal amount of animals that would get extinct is 1–5 a year and now the harsh truth is that we are losing 1000–10000 times that which means a dozen a day are going extinct.Another really sad truth is that habitat destruction and climate change combined resulted in half of the animal population to die off from the last 40 years. Another crazy fact is that more then 650,000 marine animals are getting injured by fishing tools.By 2080 40% of all lizards are going to be extinct and that really sucks for me because i am a person who loves reptiles i keep lizards now and there the coolest thing ever and they are all going to die off by climate change because they are really sensitive. So lets try to care for are animals.
