Yes...Thanks Nia for translating and for commenting! Yes I was overly pessimistic, I hope at least! I have however read serious articles that estimate that rainforests at least in some areas will be functionally extinct by the year 2100. So I'm not outwith the bounds of all possibility.

Assuming today's life expectancy, the people working on your dictionary would be born between 2030 and 2070. A woman in her seventies, according to you, would have last seen or heard of a forest or big urban park somewhere around 2050. Could we destroy most of what's left of the earth's natural beauties in forty years?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
