The
graph is a combination of two studies by Friends of
the Earth and World Resources Institute in collaboration
with the United Nations.
*
Scientists now agree between 20 and 100 million species
inhabited the Earth before Homo Sapiens population started
growing exponentially and destructively 12,000 years ago
with advent of agriculture.
* We use the Fibonacci Series and Golden Rectangle number
1.618 which is also found throughout nature and apply this
to how many species there originally where per square kilometer.
Then times it by the 25,000,000 square kilometers - once
the original size of the Rainforests and you get 40,450,000
Rainforest species.
* The Rainforests were home to 61.8% of the original species,
Biodiversity, Web of Life found on Earth. This makes the
total for all of the species originally on Earth 65,453,075.
