A brutal life or death struggle is taking place each day everywhere on this planet.
At times, it is invisible, as when a plant species, with its set of irreplaceable genes, disappears forever from an Amazon forest. Other times, it is painfully visible: a man chokes to death in a City subway, killed by a pollution-triggered asthma attack; the face of a City woman is disfigured by skin cancer, one of 200,000 such cases predicted to occur over the next decades by the thinning of the protective ozone layer around the Earth. turning into dust. One million species may be extinct by the year 2020 ; a cure for AIDS or cancer or heart attacks may be lost forever with their genes. Who Knows !!!
