Does the natural world around us sound healthy to you?

Asked by ETpro (34605points) July 21st, 2013

In this TED talk the founder of Wild Sanctuary, Bernie Krause, Ph.D. shares the amazing symphony of nature he has gathered in 45 years of recording what he has termed the biophony. Even though recording techniques have improved vastly in the 45 years he has been taping nature’s soundtrack, the biophony has grown sadly quieter. The signs of what 7 billion humans on Earth are doing to the once pristine rain forests, prairies, glaciers and streams; to the biodiversity it takes to support life on Earth, are everywhere. How long till we listen to what our planet it telling us?
