What a beautiful planet we live on. 🤗

Oh, sorry, that's wrong. 😕

What a beautiful planet we used to live on. 😞


The number of birds found at the Yasuní Biosphere Reserve, an area of Amazon Rainforest in eastern Ecuador, has dropped by half, according to a study published earlier this year.

Researchers point to a few possible causes for the declines, such as signs of reduction in insect abundance, but climate change is the common suspect in all cases.

@breadandcircuses It's not "a suspect" if there are no other suspects. It more sensible to call it "The Reason" and leave it to others to come up with mad excuses to challenge that reality. You don't have to be fair to people who are wrong 99% of the time until they make a strong enough case to be worth listening to.

    @breadandcircuses Interesting claim that reason populations are decreasing is a mystery. Could the multiple ways humans are making the planet less livable have anything to do with it? It’s a mystery.
