Earth headed towards the 6th mass extinction, will humans be wiped out?  

The planet Earth has witnessed 5 mass extinction and resulted in wiping out the species the planet the most recent 5th extinction resulted in the wipeout of dinosaurs and now the scientist has warned the earth that it is headed towards the 6th extinction and this time the target is expected the human’s life. The scientist has claimed that before the extinction earth could have lost about 7.5 to 13 percent of its total species.

The previous extinction was based on the extinction of many species and also resulted in many new species because Extinction is the new face of Creation and similarly the end in any species is the creation of the new species. The 5th extinction has resulted in the destruction of dinosaurs’ life from the planet.

According to the report in Biological Reviews stressed that “humans are the only species able to manipulate on a ground scale and they have allowed the current crisis to happen.”

Here the statement clearly shows the only reason behind such extinction is humans and the only species on the earth that slows such extinction to come in our planet and our climate change.

The world right now dealing with a high danger zone as the nature and climate of the planet has been changed which resulted in many disasters including volcanos eruptions, floods, cyclones, and heavy rain. Scientists warned the leaders of the country to include the matter of climate change in its list of serious concerns and start to cure it otherwise the extinction will not be so far for humans.

Recently, research was carried out over the extinct species which specifically covers the mammals and birds avoiding the invertebrates which constitute the great majority of biodiversity.

The research team studied such species of the planet which has suffered the largest extinction and they found mollusks (land scales and slugs) is the second-largest phylum that has faced the highest rate of extinctions than the birds and mammals.

The extinction of earth’s species is now in danger and this time the biodiversity of the earth is at the high danger zone. Whenever we think about the main cause of such extinction, the answer comes to the humans of the planet. We are the creatures who have the minds that are expected the most skilled organ on the earth but, we usually forget the significance of our brainpower.

The disasters on the planet act as an alarm and also carry a message to alert the planet. The scientist has also warned the humans of the planet and advised them to act properly in its nature and protect its climate from hazardous effects.

The future of the earth is in our hands and we should fulfill our responsibility to protect it so that we can hand over the beautiful earth as in its original form to our successors. The time to change our planet in a positive direction arrives and if we missed the opportunity we are going to face danger in upcoming years.
