Does global warming really cause 150,000 species to go extinct every day?

I heard that global warming causes 150,000 species to go extinct every day, many we don't even know about.

These species could cure AIDS or cancer. Why are we not doing enough to protect these species and do more to end global warming?

How selfish can people be?

The only thing global warming causes is Al Gore's checking account to expand.

This is simply hysterical propaganda. It is a well understood concept in ecology that a warmer climate favours species diversity. It is a colder climate that is most destructive to life.
It is the lesson of the history of life on this planet that environments change, some species increase, some decrease, some die out, and new species evolve. All species have to adapt or die out.



It was announced the other week that 2 species of butterfly have expanded their range to the north in UK. The comma and speckled wood have established breeding communities in the Isle of Man,( in the Irish sea) in the last few years, without any retreat from their southern boundary. This is reality, not computer model based speculation.

What is wiping out our wildlife is habitat destruction, and the main cause is the exponential increase in the human population. Wild habitats are being taken over for use by man, either improved for agriculture, used for domestic commercial or industrial building, or transport infrastructure.
Unless we learn to control our population, every thing else will be a waste of time

OH please! Give me the names of those species.......then you get the BS, "we haven't found them yet." Excuse me?

End global warming? Wipe out China, they are the #1 polluters now. How are we going to stop? Are you no longer eating, driving a car, turning on electricty? That's what it is going to take.........less people and more living without modern conveniences.

Stop the world I want to get off??

There is no way that, that is true because then every species would be gone.

By the way I cant believe that you think global warming is happening, my state is actually getting colder. We are having a global climate change.

Dont think that you are selfish because you could be without knowing it
