Unfortunately human kind is killing the planet it's there for all to see, high temperatures in spring is certainly not normal we had 20 degrees at Easter in the Black Forest, trees are dying all over the planet, crops failing it's time everyone looked after planet earth. And millions of people of European decent are now at risk of extinction as a result of inhuman activity. And the UN. Ecology was invented by Europeans; no one will care once we are gone.
