A RECENT UNITED NATION'S REPORT - BODLY REVEALS TO ALL US HUMAN BEINGS - THAT OUR ACTIONS - WILL SEE THE EXTINCTION - OF OVER ONE MILLION SPECIES.







We humans -those that are selfish, greed, and want it all, waste - have no serious thought about tomorrow.

The future generation - have now been told in plain language - humans are responsible for the immediate extinction of over a million species - soon. 

I wrote about this 20 years ago - but did not imagine then - and cannot fathom now - the extinction of over a million species. 

I was born in Nairobi, Kenya and had access to miles and miles of pristine land or million of acres - where all sorts of wild animals roamed freely - elephants, zebra, lions, rhinos, giraffes, deer - birds one of a kind - more migratory birds - fish in abundance - and I can go on and on. The Flora and Fauna in abundance - now being depleted all over the world - and in Kenya too.

For some strange and innate feeling - I was sought out the frogs - I made a conclusion early on - that where " frogs" thrived - nature abounded - and one could find a nice location and have a field day - feeling the cool breeze, listen to the various birds, now and then the roar of a lion - and more.

This report by the United Nations embraced the local and indigenous as well as scientific studies contributed by 145 experts authors from countries - this global report is the first comprehensive study in 15 years - based on empirical data - looking deeply at the state of our Earth - the planet's biodiversity.

More and more human activities are adversely impacting the habitat of many species that we took for granted.

Deforestation,  overfishing, bush meat hunting, poaching, climate change, contamination and pollution, invasive alien species - all play and role - in many cases we can revert the harm done - but not in more cases.

Over 8.7 million of living species make up " our life supporting and safety net " - provide human beings with food, clean drinking water, air, energy, and more - stated Diaz an ecologist from the National University of Cordoba in Argentina. She went on to say " Not only is our safety net shrinking, it's becoming more threadbare and holes are appearing." 

That one powerful statement must make us all ponder - and STOP the harm we are doing to Mother Earth.

"Indigenous peoples are key partners in the global transformation that's needed," said Carino an indigenous representative.









The Bornean Orangutan -
has been put on the endangered list -
it says a lot - as the Orangutan as does the Panda -
among many species - stirs an endearment -
in most decent humans - that care and are sensitive
to the endangered species - that will vanish -
and hopefully DNA and that science will keep a record
and the future is ours - to make or break.


I have been fortunate to travel to many parts of the world and see things for myself. My reading and studying empirical data - human beings have altered 75 percent of our Earth's land areas - and by the same measure 66 percent of the oceans - which cover 2/3 of the world land mass have been adversely impacted.

Plastic products and all sorts of garbage have been thrown into our Oceans by those that have NO clue what so ever the harm they are doing. 

The U.S. must recall the thousands of times they used the word " jettison " - and without a second thought all sorts of dangerous material - including low level atomic material were " jettison " - the same with other Nations - none of which want to admit - the harm they have done to Mother Earth.

Here is America with a population of about 320 million - we too have contributed to contamination and pollution our land, our air, and of course our rivers, lakes and oceans.

The United State of America an area 3,717,812.8 square miles - we are third largest nation - and yet  we contaminate and pollute too much - and our scientists say one thing and prod us to go good - but not the idiot we have in the White House - he is an egotistical maniac - that does not believe in Climate Change. Go figure.

Again and again the Indigenous People all over the Earth have been the bearer of goodwill - and were thought and to many it came naturally to protect Mother Earth - take very little and leave more to future generations.

Then came the White person - his greed knowing no bounds - the colonial era - the ugly actions of the Belgians in the Belgians in the Congo, the British in East Africa, the Dutch in South Africa, the Italians in Somalia and Libya, you get the picture - the Germans in what is now Tanzania - and these " thugs " - took whatever they considered of value elephant task for ivory, fur skins for those that could afford them cheetah, lion, your name it.

The greed for woods like ebony and other precious and rare minerals to this day - the people are raped - and rare mineral taken in the thousands of tons - from Africa.

We do not think much - but the fossil fuel - the removal of petroleum has cause to much damage - and leading the quest for fossil fuel - the United States of America - encouraging  the evil practice of " fracking " - the leading the world today in the production of petrol and petroleum product.

The United States should have little to do with oil tar - but choose to pipe it all the way from Canada - invading indigenous land - the land of the Lakota -  the land of Chief Sitting Bull. Greed knows NO bounds - and evil deed continue to this day - some of us went to Camp Oceti near Standing Rock - to stand united - shoulder to shoulder - with human beings from all over the world.

Water is Life. So is Air and so is our land that must not be contaminated. We know that but most of us will not take a stand with purpose of mind.

You cannot STOP the Greedy - weak in the knees, inept, not educated on issues - one cannot stay far away alone and bitch - the time has come to speak up and to something - imagine soon one million living species - wiped from the Earth.

The extinction of a million species that took millions of years to evolve - we may preserve their DNA is some form - but, I doubt we will have the patience and the time - to bring what was once in abundance, living, roaming, and all pristine - much as God wanted life to exist.





Huge chunks of many glaciers 
are melting - the Polar Bear confused -
the whales deprived of food 
many whales dying and beaching in far off place 
recently on the beaches on San Francisco 
we have seen several die of malnutrition 
and some injured - by very large ships as the 
whales swim near our shoreline - colliding with ships -
that at more materialist and concerned more with money.




These large birds depicted in this painting -
once traverse right here in San Francisco -
dinosaurs too - our micro-climate one of a kind -
is evolving - and it does not shame San Francisco 
more our Mayor London Breed and the
SF Board of Supervisors to call for more concrete -
not everyone should be living in the
Land of the Muwekma Ohlone -
leaders - not educated on issues cannot fathom that
more those that have no manners, less etiquette.







A Muwekma Ohlone Warrior -
the Ohlone lived in the Bay Area
and beyond for over 15,000 years 
all carbon dated - and recorded -
in less than 200 years all that was pristine
has been destroyed - by human beings -
with a sordid mentality - like those of our present 
Mayor London Breed and of SF Board of Supervisors.


Concrete, aggregate, poor land fill - create an increase of Carbon Dioxide - one ton of methane equals 22 tons of Carbon Dioxide.

This singular fact - the severe congestion on our roads, and other contamination and pollution - has created a toxic soup - that those in authority do not want to deal with -finding solutions.

On the contrary they talk the talk but cannot walk the walk.

It is simply wrong to look the other way - with disdain  as culprits - in the thousands - continue to adversely impact - Mother Earth.

Recently hundreds of Nations signed a protocol about recycling and sending polluted materials all over the world - the nations that send the polluted material for recycling - without second thought. All this must change - if we sincerely care about Mother Earth.

The hundreds of Nation - signatories to this agreement have in good faith agreed - but NOT the United States and one other Nation - why?

Where to you think - so called materials that are NOT accepted by China and other Third World countries go to - maybe our landfills - while some brag about sending zero waste to the landfills?

The penguins are wondering -
millions of acres of icecap -
has melted - forcing the penguins to die -
other survive by escaping to far of place -
we human are something - as much as you prove -
with empirical data - greed, selfish habits -
consulate those " greed " - harming Mother Earth 
with intent - this nonsense cannot and should not
go on forever - but, it does and why?
