Makes sense as the human population is growing, the habitat for animals gets smaller and smaller until extinction occurs. Even worse is the phenomenon happening to male frogs where pollutants in the air are making them infertile. Frog species are dying out at an unprecedented rate.
The problem is many of these scientists come from 1st world countries such as the USA, Canada, Japan and countries in Western Europe. To the aspiring farmer in Brazil or Indonesia, the arguments from the scientists come across as telling them and their families to stay in poverty because rich, American and European tourists want to spend a few weeks there on vacation.
The fight for environmentalism is multi-faceted. Public opinion for the most part is in favor of curbing practices that promote mass extinction of symbolic species such as eagles, wolves, lions, tigers, elephants and on. The harder battle is getting citizens in emerging economies to change their lifestyle in order to accomodate the world for all of God's creatures.

Why are you bringing religion into this?
|
Due to my upbringing. This is God's creation and we are the stewards of his creation.
I for one see nothing wrong with evolution and religion coexisting side by side. From my days in Portland, OR, many of those environmentalists I met along the way seemed to believe in environmentalism as a religion.
My understanding of the universe as God's creation has given me a greater respect for his creatures.
No need to derail this thread any further. You can respond more and address my points, but if it further questioning on my religious views, then I will take it for what it is as a red herring n because I said "God's creatures" and you took umbrage with it.

Joke account?

If I was going to troll, I would try to be less obvious.
