Earth Habitat
June 25th, 2017 by Neha Bagoria

 

Earth has 4,00,000 plants, over 1.5 million of animals and over 9,50,000 insects species. There are total 16,306 endangered plants and animals species threatened to exist in near future. More than 3 million years ago humans have been hunters with all skillset of hunting and gathering. Farming and colonizing as civilizations is seen as evolution of human behaviour. However, as per research the reason for this transition is unclear, whether increasing population, climate change, or changes in social behaviour drove intensification.

Humans can coexist with other species playing humanitarian role. We the most brainy species among all is to protect the ecosystem around.The incremental extinction rate is regressive for Earth habitat. Till date thousands of species are extinct and won’t return to ecology again. Human population explosion lead to such extinctions with per capita resource consumption is on rise.

However, protected status and conservation laws have salvaged many species way back from oblivion. Endangered species as Siberian tiger, Golden monkey, Island Fox, White rhino etc have been dragged from the brink.

Earth is habitable till the ecology is favorable to existence for the beings of our planet. All living beings stand equal chance to live on planet earth.Human as protector and not as predator can conserve Earth .

Hi Neha

The very dysfunctional relationship between humans and the other residents of the plant is well explained in Homo Deus: A Brief History of Tomorrow by Yuval Noah Harari. He describes how we abuse animals to our own end not recognizing them as sentient beings. Taking the argument one step further he suggests that, as many jobs are automated, humans that don’t have ‘super skills’ could be end up being treated in the same way as we now treat animals. A worrying thought. Time to rethink our attitude

Cordelia yes it’s appalling the way humans treat animals. Though we all coexist on same planet but dictate different rules for each.

Unlike the title Human being by nature not as respectful to the environment we are born it, worse is what environment we have created observed by our next generations😔😔😔

It is our duty as humans to preserve and protect the earth and species within. We should also work towards ensuring a positive way of living in order not to endanger the planet.

Humans need to live in the environment and with in the environment and not above the environment.
Somewhere humans believe everything is for them EGO..
But actually all the Earth’s resources are to be ECO.. shared between all.
Man is destroying this planet….
We all need to change.!!

We can live with other species if we wisely and considerably take advantage of their benefits and admit that their continued existence is part of God’s divine plan which ignoring His purpose will be unfortunate.

We co exist relatively well with other species sadly we are unable to coexist as one species as we seek divisions actively. As long as the new species is not causing as much harm as we are to one another am sure we will be absolutely fine
