Human activity is causing species to go extinct at rates not seen for at least 65 million years: this is the sixth mass extinction event in the history of the Earth. This project will use state-of-the-art modelling tools applied to Australian and global species and land-use change data to quantify humanity's influence on recent and future extinctions.

人类活动正在导致物种以至少6500万年未见的速度灭绝：这是地球历史上第六次大规模灭绝事件。该项目将使用适用于澳大利亚和全球物种和土地使用变化数据的最先进的建模工具，以量化人类对最近和未来保护的影响。
