HURRY ! Which statement is best supported by the data in the graph?
arlik [135]

The correct answer is - Since 2000, more people are living with HIV, but fewer people are dying from AIDS.

Since the year 2000, the number of people that are living with HIV has been steadily increasing, though it has to be noted that the rise has been gradually slowing down. On the other hand, despite having more living with HIV, the deaths by AIDS have reduced gradually.

The main reason for the increase of people living with HIV is simply that there's more and more people in the world that can contact physically much more easily, so the disease can be transferred much more easily over larger distances. On the other hand, less and less people are dying from AIDS, and the reason for that is the discovering of the disease in its early stage, as well as the development of the medicine and keeping a certain routine in the lifestyle that is healthy.

George Monbiot is spearheading the Rewilding Movement. The environmentalist and writer is prominent in the platform. He was featured in TED Talk and talked about a large scale conservation approach aiming to restore the lost habitats. Here is an excerpt of his speech where he discusses the lost megafuna:

"What megafauna, you say? Well, every continent had one, apart from Antarctica. When Trafalgar Square in London was excavated, the river gravels there were found to be stuffed with the bones of hippopotamus, rhinos, elephants, hyenas, lions. Yes, ladies and gentlemen, there were lions in Trafalgar Square long before Nelson's Column was built. All these species lived here in the last interglacial period, when temperatures were pretty similar to our own. It's not climate, largely, which has got rid of the world's megafaunas. It's pressure from the human population hunting and destroying their habitats which has done so."
