Reflections 6th Period by Michael Elder https://padlet.com/melder4/ej6i8v9w4l1a Reflect on today's discussion of the Holocene Extinction Event. Is there anything we can do to change the extinction rate? Justify your answer. en-us 2018-11-28 21:35:45 UTC 2018-12-06 03:08:26 UTC hello@padlet.com Ryan Gallagher https://padlet.com/melder4/ej6i8v9w4l1a/wish/311579906 Yes there are certain ways to at the very least slow down the Holocene extinction. There have been around 450 species of plants and animals that have been relocated to other places to stop their extinction. The main problem is getting regular citizens to become informed and try to take part in helping to slow down the extinction rate. ]]> 2018-12-05 20:12:02 UTC https://padlet.com/melder4/ej6i8v9w4l1a/wish/311579906 https://padlet.com/melder4/ej6i8v9w4l1a/wish/311579962 We cannot stop it.

It is possible to slow it down, with a lot of effort, but it will take people that care and act on it. I believe, for the most part, there will be no stopping this until humans face extinction and have to find a way to stop it. ethan_thomas6 https://padlet.com/melder4/ej6i8v9w4l1a/wish/311580230 --Ethan Thomas]]> 2018-12-05 20:12:44 UTC https://padlet.com/melder4/ej6i8v9w4l1a/wish/311580230 yes https://padlet.com/melder4/ej6i8v9w4l1a/wish/311580276 i think we can do it!!!!! we just need to change our behavior. looks at ways we can do it then apply the actions.

The forest fires happening now are destroying trees causing more carbon to to go the atmosphere causing more global warming and oceans will rise causing more natural disasters and with more global warming more forest fires will happen. It’s like a domino effect increasingly getting worse and it’s too late to stop it]]> 2018-12-05 20:12:49 UTC https://padlet.com/melder4/ej6i8v9w4l1a/wish/311580286 I think that we can slow down the extinction rate by being environmentally friendly and making changes that way but we are very close to killing off everything. -Taylor Espinoza https://padlet.com/melder4/ej6i8v9w4l1a/wish/311580295 2018-12-05 20:12:50 UTC https://padlet.com/melder4/ej6i8v9w4l1a/wish/311580295 Can we stop extinction? Shaun V. https://padlet.com/melder4/ej6i8v9w4l1a/wish/311580316 the best we can do is slow it down because we have destroyed land for our own good and animals and plants for our own good that would benefit for out lives in the future. ]]> 2018-12-05 20:12:53 UTC https://padlet.com/melder4/ej6i8v9w4l1a/wish/311580316 We can slow down it by trying to minimize our impacts on the earth but we can't prevent it fully. https://padlet.com/melder4/ej6i8v9w4l1a/wish/311580342 Kimberly Dahlstro]]> 2018-12-05 20:12:57 UTC https://padlet.com/melder4/ej6i8v9w4l1a/wish/311580342 will viv https://padlet.com/melder4/ej6i8v9w4l1a/wish/311580372 we can slow it down but not to were it changes the mass extinction time unless we ALL do some thing.

This can be done by people recycling more also by shifting our cultural focus away from wanting to keep creating and consuming new products.
