WWF: Human Destructions Responsible For 70% Decline in Wildlife
World Wildlife Fund, with its, 'Living Planet Report' blamed human for deforestation and over-consumption, for 2/3rd loss of Wildlife in less than 50 years. Also 75% of land and 40% of Earth’s oceans face the brunt of human activity. However, 60% decline was reported in the year 2016, which grew to 70% in 2020 which is a threatening trend. The continuous loss of natural habitats will increase the risk of future pandemics.
