alaotra鸊鷉灭绝 - 你关心吗?

今天,我们宣布,来自马达加斯加的水鸟,Alaotra鸊鷉是正式红色名单(灭绝)。

渡渡鸟灭绝的物种在其描绘的书籍,漫画和良好的表达式死作为一个突突的是毫无疑问的'名人'。

少约渡渡鸟是一组单独的岛屿,不会飞的鸟,灭绝人的手,或通过引进的食肉动物与人的到来,他们的岛屿,它负责。 公元1500年以来,超过130种鸟类已经灭绝,主要是因为人类活动...

在灭绝的鸟类名单仔细看看,发现了一套熟悉的鸟类,如海燕,苍鹭,鸭,moorhens,鸽子,鸽子,鹦鹉,画眉,莺和八哥已经丢失。 alaotra鸊鷉也加入两个鸊鷉灭绝已成为20世纪的最后一个季度,如最近其他物种-哥伦比亚鸊鷉和亚哥阿提兰鸊鷉。

下周,标志着另一个周年 - 著名 - 鸟类灭绝。 于1844年6月3,一双大的海雀最后被屠宰,女性仍然孵化蛋在Eldey冰岛海岸的岩石。 最有趣的这个星球上消失的鸟类,其第一个名字是原来的企鹅之一,具有讽刺意味的​​爱我们这个星球上最好的一个鸟类群体。

如果企鹅物种灭绝,它很可能会进入旁边的渡渡鸟的名人地位。 鸊鷉alaotra会已为大多数人所知,但像一个伟大的画家,其作品被确认后,他们已经死亡,但现在会变得更好,因为它的灭绝。

鸊鷉的Alaotra灭绝,许多物种的发现自己现在是一个危险状态的提醒。 今天的红名单更新,包括190种被列为极危。 这包括胡宁鸊鷉的LES有一个人口超过250人,最近的调查表明,人口的进一步下降。

  4. 胡里奥·雷斯说:

    我为什么关心? 两个原因,到现在我的脑海里:所有权和责任。

    1。 *所有权。*作为一个基督徒,我相信整个宇宙属于神。 作为一个有情的物种具有认识造物主,他发现自己对我的力量,影响他的创作在我身边,我只是一个宇宙的管家。 我不拥有它,我认为在信任;不为子孙后代,但上帝,谁创造了一切,并宣布他的喜悦在他的作品的时间和时间,再次在基督教圣经。 世界不是我的使用,因为我看到合适的,但只有体面的,可持续的限度内。 任何其他手段“已在神的形像创造的”,肯定它强烈地暗示,上帝并没有创造世界,发音为“非常好”,然后把它给人类,所以我们可以垃圾。 (事实上​​,你可以google一块关于这个问题的一个神的头脑“地球驱逐舰”)。因此,每一个灭绝是在上帝的脸一巴掌,因为它是。

    2。 *责任。我不能漠不关心,一个物种的丧失,以为有别人,就像我不能做同样的关于人类。 所有的人会死,是吗? ,但我们战斗死亡:我们预防疾病,争取它,当它发生,防止事故的发生,并尽量不要让他们再次发生,我们尝试在我们所知的每一个方法,以延长生命,我们为新的和更好的方法研究这样做的。 我们哀悼我们从来不知道,在远离战争和灾难的人类死亡。 最后,当一切失去了生活的希望,我们给予姑息治疗,因为有尊严的死亡来作为最后与尽可能少的疼痛。 事实上,人们都会死并不意味着我将杀死他们,恰恰相反。 我的孩子会死,但请,而不是在我的手。 我的邻居会死,但我不会杀她。 在很远的地方的人会死,但请你,我什么都没有做他们的死亡,我会做什么我可以停止这些死亡。 我自己会死,但我们没有理由采取我自己的生活。 对于我来说,它是与非人类的生命一样。 这是我的责任和特权保护所有生命形式,并请让它永远不能说,我却反其道而行之。 (我,可悲的。但是,这并不是故事的结尾。)

    I do care because every time a species is extinct, a connection in the food web is broken and that is disaster in the ecosystem. Nature does not work on gueswork, it's a streamlined system of life in that whtever we do hit at us with time, worst of all its usually the next generation that suffers, so let us keep our environs safe so that our fore kins do not suffer.

    I care but the difficult thing for me is that I didn't really do that much about it. I donate a little money to conservation and work in environmental education but that is about as far as it goes. I see some of the other comments bear the same sentiment. It is really difficult to get past the negativity and disempowerment but that is exactly what we all HAVE TO do to make a difference.

    As for the question at the start- the Aloatra Grebe extinct- why should I care?- why SHOULDN'TI care- it was here when I was born (I think) but it won't be there when I die. The Birdlife website is really good because it includes small things that each of us can do. I only wish there were more simple suggestions of things to do beyond recycling and watching out for food miles.

    Another strand cut from the web of life, another weakening of the environment that supports us and another unique piece of evolution gone forever and with it a diminution of the inheritance that I and the rest of my generation pass onto our children.

    But if that is not enough of a reason to care, then how about the last service the Alaotra Grebe performed for us as it faded from the planet, acting as one of all to many environmental warning flags waving around us. Flags which warn us not only of the degradation of the lake ecosystem in Madagascar upon which the Grebe depended and which the local population still do, but also as a warning of the slow falling apart of the broader Madagascan and global environment upon which we all depend.

    But of course if some one asks the question “why should we care when a species goes extinct at the hand of man?” You have to paraphrase a famous quote about jazz reply “If you don't understand now … well maybe you never will”.

    有许多人是如此切合自然的世界,一个单一的鸟类的灭亡,一个单一的栖息地的丧失感到作为一个悲伤的。 但是,我们必须承认,并不是所有的人都这样。 为了说服那些有不同的价值观和关切,以改变他们的方式和珍惜自然的世界,我们需要使我们的健康和福祉的链接,显示的是从根本上取决于一个健康的自然世界。

    我们每个人都可以通过传播信息和如何一个物种的减少或损失,或将影响人类社会的例子。 我们要帮助大家了解令人不安的生态系统的实际后果 - 后果,这将影响我们所有的粮食供应或增加疾病。

    换言之关怀是不够的。 我们需要教育自己有关生态系统的破坏,其后果,以教育他人。 我们需要聪明和战略,聪明和狡猾。 损失Alaotra鸊鷉需要我们权力,而不是陷入绝望,但付诸行动。

    How you vote determines the fate of the world! When anyone elects or re-elects a politician based on the way someone claims they are voting, you fail yourself and the world. Never should a politician be voted into office based solely on his or her popularity! Never should a politician remain in a political position based on people being afraid to recall or impeach the politician. When you let family, friends, neighbors, co-workers, etc. influence your vote, you fail yourself and the rest of the world! Anyone who cowards away from recalling or impeaching a bad/corrupt politician (especially a politician that does not care about preserving our natural environment), totally disrespects our US Constitution and Bill of Rights. A coward is an asset to a bad/corrupt politician, who better to help the politician keep being corrupt.

    I state the above because it is the cowardly citizens that are the real killers of our environment! It is the cowards of the world that allow bad/corrupt politicians to remain in office. Politicians get away with their corrupt behaviors because cowards give them the power to be corrupt. If the citizens of the United States really want our government to change for the better, more people need to stop being cowards and start recalling and impeaching bad/corrupt politicians out of office! We have a President in office now that thinks nothing and laughs when he is accused of being a Socialist! (Any of our past Presidents would have showed an outraged attitude not laughing, if the media portrayed any of them as being Socialists!) We have a President (and his wife) in office now who both think it is more important to be on the cover of all the fashion magazines, then it is to get fired up about the decline in our natural environment!

    Our President now shows the same shady attitud, doing the same “secret” closed door meetings that got Nixon impeached! Why was Nixon impeached, but Obama is not? If Obama really took the title of US President seriously, he would not allow himself or his family to be portrayed as a fashionistas. People need to speak up, stop being cowards, and start demanding Obama and his wife take the Office of the President very seriously. The people of the US need to demand that the President and Michelle Obama stop playing to the cameras and start concentration on the very serious problems plaguing our country and the world. The title of President of the United States should NEVER be used as a stepping stone to a Hollywood or fashion career! As long as people coward away from political recalls and impeachment procedures, our natural environment remains doomed!

It is important, however, to remain positive and commend the efforts that have saved the Black Robin, Azores Bullfinch and many more, and continue to support efforts to protect and restore various ecosystems that these species rely upon. As a friend put it, as a kid he associated extinction with dinosaurs. Talk to your kids about this, but also talk about the tireless efforts of countless many to save other species.

And sad as this is, it is just many of such announcements to come during the next few years. Eskimo Curlew, Po ªouli, Imperial Woodpecker and so forth. We know they're gone, waiting for one last formality. It is important, however, to remain positive and commend the efforts that have saved the Black Robin, Azores Bullfinch and many more, and continue to support efforts to protect and restore various ecosystems that these species rely upon. As a friend put it, as a kid he associated extinction with dinosaurs. Talk to your kids about this, but also talk about the tireless efforts of countless many to save other species. All hope is not lost, even if today it took a dent.

Unless the “saved” spp has adequate and protected habitat for perpetuity it has just had a temporary reprieve from ultimately truly dissappearing forever.

    The extinction of the Alaotra grebe is especially tragic, because it would clearly have been possible to transfer breeding pairs to other lakes or ponds without carnivorous fish before it was too late. This is clearly a lack of commitment or oversight of the government and other organizations. There is enough money wasted on other environmental issues, which make the extinction of the grebe (the Junin greebe will soon follow!)unforgivable.

    Yet another illustration of mankinds' neglect and abuse of an element of our natural heritage. The introduction of gill nets and carnivorous fish are both associated with conscious decisions taken by humans, the individuals from which should be brought to book in some way. If a valuable painting or artefact of international repute and value was allowed to deteriorate and be destroyed there would undoubtedly be a backlash and enquiry. Why does our natural heritage command such little respect by comparison?. Each component is an irreplaceable gem arising out of evolutionary “progression” and not an item we should feel free to tamper with or neglect in any way. Yet another sad example of our arrogance!
