Based on recent UN biodiversity reports and global assessments, the world is facing an unprecedented environmental crisis, often described as a "one million species" extinction threat. This crisis is largely driven by human activity, which has significantly altered 75% of terrestrial environments and 66% of marine environments.
The top five drivers of this extinction crisis are changes in land/sea use, direct exploitation (hunting/fishing), climate change, pollution, and invasive species.
Up to 1 million species of plants and animals are currently threatened with extinction, many within decades, representing a rate tens to hundreds of times faster than historical averages.
