Turning point is a collection of Data and Information displayed in a visually appealing
journey where we discover the factors and the threats of our sixth mass extinction of
species. Our website is constantly evolving as we dive deeper in the problem.
Through this journey you can discover and analyse the evolution of our nature and
where we are now. Suddenly everything is changing in a very rapid pace yet where is
the turning point ? Did we miss it? Are we at the end of the extinction or at the begin
-
ning? Did we miss our chance to save our planet?
