the existence forecast

cloudy with a chance of being. (more silliness below) My stuff: Books what I wrote yo ► For sending personalised insults ► T-shirts, mugs, and sadness ► I also make horrendous music ► Help me to do this full-time if you're deranged enough (and thank you kindly) ► It's almost impossible to know how many species are going extinct in a given time without being sure how many species there actually are on the planet - which we're not. The 150 species per day figure was suggested at the UN Convention on Biological Diversity and it sounded suitably horrible so in the figure went.
