Jae Rhim Lee's Infinity Burial Project explores the choices we face after death, and how our choices reflect our denial or acceptance of death’s physical implications.
Today, scientists believe that we are
entering the 6th Mass Extinction. But unlike the previous five, this one
will not take centuries to unfold—in fact, it will take place in our
lifetimes. As scientists begin to realize the severity of the crisis and
new worldwide assessments are made, the news is difficult to believe.
At least half of all plant and animal species are likely to disappear in
the wild within the next 30-40 years, including many of the most
familiar and beloved large mammals: elephants, polar bears, chimpanzees,
gorillas and all the great apes, all the big cats, and many, many
others. Bird species are similarly imperiled, songbird populations have
declined by 50% in the last 40 years. One out of every eight species of
plant life worldwide and almost one third of the plant species within
the United States already face extinction. Populations of large ocean
fish have declined by 90% since the 1950s. All around the world, birds,
reptiles, mammals, amphibians, fish, and invertebrates, as well as
trees, flowering plants, and other flora, are all in steep decline.
We are dependent on the earth's biodiversity for survival and without it we are in big trouble. calloflife.com
