Imagine this: 1st period at 8:00 in the morning, you're tired and ready to fall asleep, and your dumb science teacher who can never seem to stop talking begins a speech about biodiversity. You perk up, because you actually know what he's talking about, and then start fuming in indignition, because the person who's supposed to give you a future is feeding your classroom blatant lies. "Extinction is perfectly natural," he says. Yes, yes, you know that already. "Humans are just speeding it up a bit." And this is where it gets frustrating. Did you know that thousands of threatened species are being murdered EVERY SINGLE DAY? And that one of those rapidly disappearing trees being slaughtered in the rainforests will cure cancer? And many more will cure many other human maladies? "Speeding it up a bit." Mr. Perkins, I am ashamed of you. You have the power to raise the awareness of the next generation, and you're spending your valuable time LYING TO IT.
Also, people of the public school system, if you want to raise awareness about decreasing biodiversity, PLEASE don't make your ads SO FREAKING CHEESY! Kids don't like cheesy. They like cleverness, yes, but cheese on this level is everything BUT clever. Do YOU think you would take a subject seriously if you first started reading about it in an article about a little boy having an interview with Mother Nature, that looked as if it had been written by a boy several grades younger?
GRARGH! STUPID! IDIOTIC! DISGUSTABLE! MONSTERFINKS! *pitches rotten tomatoes at public school system*
Please excuse me if my wildly hypothisesed numbers are totally incorrect, but I got them from an 'educational video'.
