据科学家预测,今天,每小时有三个物种灭绝,而如果以现在的速度,到2050年,全球将会有四分之一到一半的物种与我们挥手告别,人类可能已经迎来了第六次物种大灭绝时代。这似乎是一个相当沉重的话题,特别是对于一个孩子而言,当格伦·奇尔顿正好奇地将他的小手探进茶叶包装盒时,他在触及那些绘有北美濒危野生动物卡片的同时触及了它。而鸟类学家罗杰·托瑞·彼得森为这套卡片所撰写的“凄惨”判语又比任何咖啡与茶叶都更使人神经敏感。于是,敏感出了今天的鸟类学家格伦·奇尔顿。我对鸟类的认识很浅薄,除了成天见到的麻雀、鸽子,长相奇特的猫头鹰,以及有“一技之长”的鹦鹉,当然还有企鹅、孔雀,或者再加上餐桌上的鸡和鸭,其他鸟类都识不出几种,我一直觉得比起养喵星人与汪星人来,养鸟是一件让内心比较纠结的事儿,因 According to scientists, today, three species are extinct every hour, and if by present rate one quarter to one half of the world’s species will wave and say goodbye to us by 2050, humans may have been ushered in for the sixth time Species extinct era. This seems to be a rather heavy topic, especially for a child, when Glenn Chilton was curiously exploring his hand into a tea box, touching on the cards that portray the endangered wildlife of North America Touched it at the same time. And the ornithologist Roger Torrey Peterson wrote the card’s “miserable” verdict more than any coffee and tea. Thus, sensitive to today’s ornithologist Glenn Chilton.
