Ecología; Ecosocialismo; Cambio climático; Perturbaciones antropogénicas; Pérdida de biodiversidad.Resumen
En las últimas décadas, se ha prestado cada vez más atención a los impactos de las actividades humanas en la degradación de los ecosistemas naturales, principalmente debido a la necesidad de "suministro" de alimentos, vivienda y bienes de consumo para la población humana. Las actividades humanas han intensificado los efectos del cambio climático, considerados los principales impulsores de la pérdida de biodiversidad y de los daños económicos y sociales. Por tanto, se puede argumentar que el sistema capitalista, basado en los combustibles fósiles y la explotación de los recursos forestales, es el principal responsable de la actual crisis ecológica. Teniendo esto en cuenta, el objetivo de este “documento” es presentar una carta a la sociedad sobre lo que estamos haciendo con nuestros ecosistemas, sirviendo de alerta sobre la existencia de nuestra especie. La metodología utilizada para elaborar este estudio fue una revisión bibliográfica narrativa.
