The world is in trouble. We all know that. And the trouble is right before our eyes. No frogs, No snakes, No bobolinks, No leeches, No Killdeers. Let me change that. yes, I did find
a couple of Leopard frogs in our 7 acres of ponds this year (2018). No doubt there are more but decades ago there were hundreds, thousands maybe. And last year we had garter snakes
procreating in our green house. The big female had lots of suitors…seemed to be in every crate of flower pots. None so far this year. And the ponds had lots of leeches. None for past few years. Have not seen
a bobolink or a killdeer for decades. What to do ? What to do? Are we really in the midst of the sixth extinction of life on our planet? Will the polar regions melt and raise the oceans high enough
to drown our ocean cities. Will the climate change so radically that lives of little creatures will be lost forever? Is it true that 95% of the living creatures on earth are human beings and their domestic animals. The wild creatures have been reduced to 5%.
