Explored!
Mankind is creating the path to its own extinction. Unplanned development, greed, and politics are making it faster and no one is paying attention. Third world countries like Bangladesh is suffering the most, where there is hardly any control and law enforcement from the Governments side and awareness of the people is close to nothing.

The symbol above represents extinction. The circle signifies the planet, while the hourglass inside serves as a warning that time is rapidly running out for many species. The world is currently undergoing a mass extinction event, and this symbol is intended to help raise awareness of the urgent need for change in order to address this crisis. Estimates are that somewhere between 30,000 and 140,000 species are becoming extinct every year in what scientists have named the Holocene, or Sixth Mass Extinction. This ongoing process of destruction is being caused by the impact of human activity. Such a catastrophic loss of biodiversity is highly likely to cause widespread ecosystem collapse and consequently render the planet uninhabitable for humans.

ABOUT THIS SYMBOL
Since its inception the extinction symbol has always been a strictly anti-consumerist project. No extinction symbol merchandise exists, and it never will. The free use of the extinction symbol by individuals in their personal artwork or other forms of expression is strongly welcomed and encouraged, but any form of commercial use of the symbol is completely against its ethos and should therefore be refrained from. Please do not use the symbol on any items that will be sold or for fundraising purposes, nor to endorse any businesses or political organizations. This is an ecological symbol of peaceful resistance. It should definitely not be used for any purposes or ideologies associated with violence, or to promote nuclear energy, GMOs or suchlike, as these things are incompatible with the ethical values of the symbol. There are no exceptions to this policy. Thank you for your understanding in this matter.

Climate change protest
Protesta contra el cambio climático
Extinction Rebellion is a socio-political movement with the stated aim of using civil disobedience and nonviolent resistance to protest against climate breakdown, biodiversity loss and the risk of social and ecological collapse
Hundreds of protesters gathered in central London to Protest about Extinction or something, several were dressed up for the occasion.
The Jaguar typical specie of Brazilian forests is important for OUR ecosystem conservation actions. Their number is declining and the species is endangered.
The main reason for reducing the largest cat in the Americas is the trade skins, which makes the jaguar SKIN target of hunters and traders. Another important factor for almost extreme EXTINCTION are the growing environmental changes caused by humans.
But why the mural name is "Philosophical Extinction" and why I painted a BLACK man almost 6 meters high next to a jaguar you can tell me why.

"Extinção Filosófica"
A ONÇA PINTADA espécie emblemática das matas brasileiras é importante para as ações de conservação do NOSSO eco sistema. Porém está quase em EXTINÇÂO e os principais motivos da redução do maior felino das Américas são o comércio de PELES, o que faz da onça-pintada alvo cobiçado de caçadores e comerciantes e as crescentes alterações ambientais provocadas pelo homem.
Agora o porque o mural se chama "Extinção Filosófica" e porque eu pintei um NEGRO de quase 6 metros de altura ao lado de uma onça pintada você pode me dizer o porque.

had a crazy cool (and very productive) day with Rachel Poxon today :)
we had to wait for about 20 minutes to get this photo because there was some sort of orienteering activity going on in this area at the time and people kept walking past every time i went to take the picture!
