What the people of the Amazon know that you don't by Mark Plotkin
"The greatest and most endangered species in the Amazon rainforest is not the jaguar or the harpy eagle," says Mark Plotkin, "It's the isolated and uncontacted tribes." In an energetic and sobering talk, the ethnobotanist brings us into the world of the forest's indigenous tribes and the incredible medicinal plants that their shamans use to heal. He outlines the challenges and perils that are endangering them — and their wisdom — and urges us to protect this irreplaceable repository of knowledge. Published on Nov 24, 2014

Introducing the Endangered Languages Project

The Endangered Languages Project is a website for people to find and share the most up-to-date and comprehensive information about the over 3,000 endangered languages of the world. Continue exploring at Endangered Languages.com.

The Catalogue of Endangered Languages on this site shows that more than 40% of all languages are endangered and at risk of extinction.

The disappearance of a language means the loss of valuable scientific and cultural information, comparable to the loss of a species.
