#ExtinctionDebt occurs cause of time delays between impacts on a species, such as destruction of habitat, & the species' ultimate disappearance. E.g., long-lived trees may survive for many years even after reproduction of new trees has become impossible, and thus they may be committed to extinction.
The worst debt in the history of multi-celled life, 600 million years in the making, is today. Right now.
The data for the chart below is from 2008-2018. Since then, we have accelerated and are now losing 2/3s of insect biomass per decade. Also in nature reserves.

The Amazon isn’t just losing trees — it’s building up an extinction debt. Species we think are “safe” now may vanish in the decades to come if habitat loss and fragmentation continue. #Amazon #ExtinctionDebt #Biodiversity #Conservation #ClimateAction www.tropicalconservationfund.org/extinctionde...
Great introductory talk to time lags by @jmjtravis.bsky.social
We could not properly catch up in person, but really happy to have listened to your talk earlier! 😊
