To give some perspective, that’s a little less than two Nazi holocausts per year for 100 years.
Damn, the fact this is the case yet the threat is still ignored says a lot about where we're at collectively!
Collectively, I’d say we’re on a gradient ranging from denial to resignation on the stages of grief model.
A lot of people means there’s a lot of social inertia before we see the change reflected as a species.
