The defining contradiction of capitalism
Capitalism wants or needs what it cannot have: that is, limitless growth on a finite planet. This ecological predicament is the defining contradiction of capitalism in the 21st century, insofar as growth is now causing the problems that growth was supposed to be solving (Sam Alexander, 2018).

Marine biodiversity–ecosystem functions under uncertain environmental futures 
Anthropogenic activity is currently leading to dramatic transformations of ecosystems and losses of biodiversity. 
Anthropogenic activities continue to cause significant global climate change (IPCC 2007).
Partly as a consequence of climate change, and also as a direct result of human activities (e.g. harvesting, habitat destruction and pollution), there has been a significant and rapid decline in global biodiversity (Vitousek et al. 1997; Sala et al. 2000). The speed of this decline has been estimated to be over 1000 times greater than rates of extinction calculated from the fossil record (Lawton & May 1995; Pimm et al. 1995, Millennium Ecosystem Assessment 2005). 
The rate of sea temperature rise is predicted to increase over the next decades, with the estimated rise in the mean surface temperature for the end of the twenty-first century lying between 1.1°C and 6.4°C (IPCC 2007).
