And they would do it over and over again, gender equality is just a free ticket to being accepted to a wider population.

India is quite massive . Quality of air is bad in cities not forests

extinct means they don't exist anywhere in the world.

OK... if I have an indoor cat, and an outdoor cat, and the indoor cat dies... indoor cats are now extinct in my house, yes?

I'm sorry, I'm not trying to be a brat. But I feel that using this term, that has historically been used to represent the end of a species forever, in this way that focuses on regional populations instead, will only degrade the seriousness of 'extinction' to the public in general. Pushing extinction this way in social media will only dull people's reaction to it in the long run. And there's already a word for what this is trying to do anyway, extirpation. But people on social media don't know that word, so well here we are ;)

Call it regional extinction, or locally extinct, and we'll all on the same page at least.

It used to be accepted that extinction of a species occurred with the death of the last member of that spices that represented a chance of reproduction in the wild. That being said, definitions of words change over time, same as trends and social norms. Things just change. And we eventually rewrite the definitions to accommodate that.

I don't think that it is particularly wrong to say an animal can be extinct in one region, while existing in another, but it it most definitly confusing to somebody who uses the traditionally accepted definition of extinct. It's much more concise to say that cheetahs disappeared entirely from the region, and only approximately 100 of their particular subspecies exist in the wild somewhere else. In fact, I would say that using the word 'extinct' in the way it is used in this post is most likely intentionally missleading- tho I appreciate that it is probably being done so to bring attention to an issue that I also believe needs to be taken more seriously be humanity on the whole.

That would be migration

Good for us, again.

My dog just left my living room and is now in the garage. Is it safe to say that dogs are now extinct in my living room?

A lot of the bad air quality is mainly in the North Indian Gangetic plain, which is surrounded by mountains thus the heavier smoke tends to settle there.

Additionally the farmers nearby also engage in burning crop stubble, which causes heavy smog in Delhi especially. The government tried to stop it with laws, but that led to... Problems.

The capital of India, Delhi, is most affected so there's a bit more bad pr there.

Not sure if Uplifting, I’ve seen what happens in Hercules :/

Are they going to be freed so they can repopulate?

To the troll responding to me - please go away

Right, but “extirpation” is the proper term for when a species is gone from a particular area but still exists in the world.

Speaking of myself personally I am not really much of an Excel budgeting kind of person, I've tried it but I just have hard time staying motivated to use it. Admittedly I find having these aesthetically pleasing cash envelopes/binders and these elaborate set-ups a little extra but it helps people budget and get their finances together. Different things work for different people, so why not?

I absolutely love hearing that things like this are successful. however, my worry is that they're still going to be hunted?

Not a fan of Qatar’s airport. It’s just so “busy” and slick. I guess if that’s your style it’s fab. I’ll take the outdoors-in style anyway.

So from what I've seen people will physically save up for maybe sinking funds or their emergency fund and once they get to their goal point they will re-deposit it into the bank. I personally am too lazy to do this so that is why I wouldn't get into physical cash stuffings but I can understand why people do it. Some people need something tactile and in person to really get where their money is going and what they're doing with it.

It's a beautiful airport, and Singapore's subway is so cheap and efficient it's really easy to get into the city and back during a layover.

Asiatic cheetah are extinct in India and only 100 are remaining in entire world.

I'm more inclined to believe some super-intelligent critter will crawl up out of one of our superfund sites, all its genetics super-screwed from our environmental futt-buckery, and it shows us a few tricks that reverse the ice-melt and zaps a bunch of cancers and viruses lately liberated from the permafrost and denuded rain forest land!

But, pray tell, what are these "recent revelations" you speak of?
