The Sixth Extinction
X-Files aside, the UN is finally making “official” what everyone has known for ages: we are currently living through one of the Great Extinctions of life on this planet. So far five have been found in the fossil record, so that makes this the Sixth Extinction.
May you live in interesting times indeed. I wonder what class of animals will take over on the top of the food chain after us mammals expire? My money’s on lawyers.
