It has been found out that most projected extinctions will not be drastic as we have been meant to believe. This is because most animals and plants have been projected to be extinct by the end of this century yet the method that is used to forecast this can exaggerate by more than 160%. In this case, extinctions that are supposed to be brought about the loss of a given habitat require a lot of losses than what is currently projected and thought of.
Apart from this, human beings have been blamed for wrecking habitats and this is expected to bring a lot of losses to society. As a matter of fact, this is a growing threat that will lead to great losses of species. Since there are a lot of exaggerations because of the method that is used, there is a need for a revision of this approach.
The world’s human population has been increasing drastically and this has made it difficult for scientists to project and estimate extinctions. Other aspects like global warming and pollution have complicated the situation further meaning that such trends are supposed to be reviewed. Various studies and surveys have been done in relation to the wide topic of the extinction of plants and animals which needs to be reviewed.
In this case, there is no complacency as far as extinction risks are concerned. This is in relation to the risks of climate change that need to be addressed. Estimations have been flawed but there should be concerns because habitats are continually shrinking. As far as different assessments are concerned, habitat loss will continue to be the biggest threat to the earth’s biodiversity.
