Is The World on The Brink of Its Sixth Mass Extinction?

The world has witnessed five mass extinctions, and it is estimated that the world is on the brink of a sixth, largely attributed to human activities.  Factors such as deforestation, overhunting, and excessive consumption have led to the destruction of habitats and the irreversible loss of countless species. This impending extinction event is projected to surpass even the impact of the asteroid strike some 60 million years ago.
