The Holocene Extinction Event

What is that I hear you ask? Something to do with the dinosaurs? Nope. We are in the middle of the Holocene Extinction Event; you just need to read about the extinction of the Baiji that is literally happening at this moment in time to realise it.

If there is some afterlife where we meet our ancestors I'm going to slap them all round the face. All the most exciting animals we know about were bloody killed off by them... imagine a world with Haast's Eagles, the Moa-nalo and the Thylacine. What a wonderful world that'd be.

And still we go on... killing and raping, our successful programme for world domination. Is hating one's own species wrong?
