UN report on nature desctruction
Finnish YLE: UN report: Destruction of nature accelerating
Man caused descruction of nature has never been as fierce as now and it's just getting worse, says Millennium Ecosystem Assessment report made by UN.
The last 50 years have changed the world's ecosystems more than any period in man's history. Big part of the changes made cannot be annuled. The worst threat is the warming of climate caused by fossil fuel. In near future there will more dramatic and fast changes in local environments, such as forest fires, death of sea beds and disease epidemics.
Scientists give advice what to do in future to change the way of destructive progress. People should consume differently, use natural resources should be limited, new nature friendly technology should be taken into use and there should be education how to do all this.
