Almost 600 plant species have been lost in the last 250 years.... https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-48584515
Human encroachment is one reason.Human population is out of control for the size of the planet and we haven`t got `to the stars` yet!! Global warming is another. Plants are very sensitive to temperature. This chilly spring my beans are way behind. A few years of that could kill off some species. That`s exactly what`s happening.

Trying to reduce our own personal use of plastic or changing our Energy company seems so little!!
When I started this -nearly 50 years ago I joined Friends of the Earth-it seemed no one even believed it. Now people do and kids understand it`s their future being put in jeopardy and still things move so slowly!!😱😡
