RE: The Dying Oceans

in #science7 years ago (edited)

Us, as humans take way too many things for granted. The extinction rate is incredibly high: 0.01 % of species go extinct every single year. This may not seem like a lot, but let's say there are 8.7 million species on the planet. That would mean 870 species would go extinct in this year alone! This is estimated by experts to be 1000 to 10 000 times higher than the natural extinction rate.Numerous companies only care about making money, and they succeed in doing so, but to the detriment of the environment and ecosystem.

This is why I admire so much Elon Musk. He is one of the only filthy rich people who deserves every single penny of what he owns. He creates luxurious electric cars for people to drive, helping humans transition from fossil fuel energy to a more eco-friendly source of energy, electricity. His other company, SolarCity, also helps with this transition to newer energy. He created two companies that not only solve problems that us, humans, have but also those of the animals. This is why so many people, including me, look up to this man.
