Amphibian decline
Apparently the sensitivity of amphibian populations to the environment makes them great barometers for measuring ecological decline. It looks like apparently one third of amphibian species are facing extinction as a result of loss of habitat, pollution, yet another demonstration of mankind's destructive powers. The BBC have an article about a scientific meeting in Washington DC to address the situation.

Let's be honest. Do you really think we'll be able to make a difference?
