Your taxes could prevent human extinction

All species on earth work to support man through clothing, food and medicines.  When they start going extinct we risk our own survival.  That's from Lowell Baier, author of "Earth's Emergency Room: Saving Species as the Planet and Politics Get Hotter."  

Baier says the loss of habitat through climate change and expansion of commerce due to population growth is the number one reason we are losing animal and plant life.  And why the Endangered Species Act is critical to fund.
