Species loss is accelerating to a rate tens or hundreds of times faster than in the past, the report said. More than half a million species on land "have insufficient habitat for long-term survival" and are likely to go extinct, many within decades, unless their habitats are restored. The oceans are not any better off.
"Humanity unwittingly is attempting to throttle the living planet and humanity's own future," said George Mason University biologist Thomas Lovejoy, who has been called the godfather of biodiversity for his research. He was not part of the report.
"The biological diversity of this planet has been really hammered, and this is really our last chance to address all of that," Lovejoy said.

This comes down to fighting and actually having a plan for climate change, water air and land pollution, reducing deforestation.
And the major offenders have to sign on board, the China's, US, and others.
