Summary

In overview, the notion of extinction is considerably authentic. However, in this case, the respective situation involves the total extermination of human beings as an outcome of their environmentally hazardous activities. If the dinosaurs were capable of undergoing the process of extinction, the same outcome can also occur in relation to human beings. Over the years, scientists have asserted the possibility of human beings undergoing the process of extermination. This is based specifically on the notion that humans possess the needed potential considerable enough to produce a worldwide climatic change. Such changes to the climate would eventually result in significant levels of habitat destruction as well as the loss of species. Despite such theoretical nuances, the present evidence illustrates the widespread nature encompassing the extermination of species on a global basis. Additionally, fossil records illustrate bizarre destructive events that took place in the past especially on massive and homogenous species that were scattered globally. The five of these events, particularly the last one, caused a drastic shift in the survival of the respective species at the time. Even though such events took place millions of years ago, there is cause for alarm over the potential rate at which the present world is placing its future in undeniable risk. Consequently, scientists are convinced that the future altered world will solely constitute a place that is supportive of human as well as animal extermination. This is because of the deplorable quality of life that the respective species will be subjected to at the time. Apparently, dwindling precursors of biological diversity such as coral reefs and the current state of the global environment show the incapability of the modern world to survive longer. Nevertheless, on a harsh yet optimistic note, scientists, specifically ecologists, are not convinced that the world, with its peculiar vastness, holds pristine environments that have not been polluted. Hence, people should identify the grave reality of the situation at hand in order to avoid restricting an environmental revolution.
