Famed biologist Jane Goodall recalls the gradual destruction of the chimpanzee's natural habitat and their rapidly declining numbers. She presents the plight of the chimpanzee as just one example of a species that has been pushed to "the brink of extinction" by human factors.

  • People like Jane Goodall don't die, even when they do.

  • Don't hundreds, if not thousands, of species die a year? We need higher buildings, and less urban/surburben sprawl.

    We Need Planned communities, not UNTHOUGHT/UNPLANNED suburbanite developments. Suburbs are the virus of nature.

  • I haven't gaily laughed in days nor have I eaten a beet in six months and I know that are both are healthful. It's on the authority of “humane” societies that dogs need daily exercise and occasional gassings (gassings during lulls in popularity).

  • Oh, believe me, she is moooore alive than any one of us!! She was visiting London, National Geographic Society store last week for a talk and book signing, I had a chance to see he, and believe me, she is magnetic!She has something sooo important in her eyes, that you will not be able to forget!!

    And she is right - everyone of us is responsible for our home caled Earth!

  • Hitlerian-styled eugenics was about improving the populace thru racial hygiene. The sermons of Darwin, Dawkins, Cousteau, Ted Turner, Margaret Sanger, Jane Goodall, Paul Ehrlich, the Huxleys, H.G. Wells, Elizabeth Regina's husband, Warren Buffet, Bill Gates etc. humanely stress the reduction of humanity through weaponized serums, laboratory-fabricated viruses (pathogens), perpetual war, food & water shortages/rationing, de-industrialization & aborticides.

  • And lest we forget: whoa!

  • tree hugging monkey worshiping elitists?

    wow :-/

  • To the tree-hugging-monkey-worshiping elitists: Z.P.G. begins with you. Do something positive to bring down the number of people. You have the power to unburden this fragile planet by 1 person today! You have the means to end your life cycle for the good of Mother Earth.

  • Herr Hitler supported Western eugenics (the false science that determines who is qualified to procreate). Jane Goodall supports Western eugenics, as did Oliver Wendell Holmes (Chief Justice of the United States), Charles Darwin, Aldous Huxley; as does Bill Gates, Warren Buffet, Obama; as did Herbert George Wells (author of The Time Machine & War of the Worlds), Margaret Sanger (founder of Planned Parenthood), Jacques Cousteau, John D. Rockefeller, Andrew Carnegie, etc.
