What Species Decline?

This latest debunking of a cherished green scare is further bad news for publicity seeking climate catastrophists 

By ——--March 14, 2023

Two independent groups of scientists have destroyed the always improbable claim that vertebrates across the planet have declined by 69 percent since 1970 made by the World Wildlife Fund and the Zoological Society of London.  A group of Canadian biologists has shown that the figure is a statistical freak. They reveal that the estimate is driven by 2.4 percent of wildlife populations, adding, "If these extremely declining populations are excluded, the global trend switches to an increase."...............This extinction study is just the latest example of misuse and abuse of the scientific process designed to sow fear of an impending climate apocalypse.

Willis Eschenbach asks this question; what are the names of all the extinct birds and mammal supposedly gone? The record of continental (as opposed to island) bird and mammal extinctions in the last five centuries was analyzed to determine if 'species-area' relationship actually works to predict relationships. Very few continental birds or mammals are recorded as having gone extinct from habitat reduction alone. No continental forest bird or mammal is recorded as having gone extinct from any cause since the species-area relationship predicts that there should have been a very large number of recorded bird and mammal extinctions from habitat reduction over the last millennium shows that the species-area relationship gives erroneous answers to the question of extinction rate........To Read More............
