That was Robyn Rosenberger's motivation when she started sewing superhero capes fbr kids with cancer, heart defects, and other serious diseases.

So Rosenberger sent her one, and Brenna's mother was delighted.Rosenberger found ten more kids online and sent out ten more capes. Before long, she quit her job at a software company to dedicate herself full time to tiny superheroes. com, a website where people can buy hand-made capes for brave kids facing illness and disability.Since 2013, Rosenberger and her small paid staff have sent more than 12,000 handmade capes to kids in all 50 states and 15 other countries. The capes come in pink, blue, purple, or red and can be decorated with the child's initials or specialized patches, including a heart, a rocket, or a lightning bolt. One recipient was eight-month-old Gabe, who was bom with a cleft palate （月卷裂）,which causes distinct facial features. Rosenberger sent him a red cape with a bright yellow G in the center. It was a hit.Gabe is now a fixture on the company's social media posts. "The Tiny Superhero community has been a wonderful connection to have J says Gabe's mom, Kate Glocke.

Later that month, the Guardian reported that "40 percent of the world's plant species are at risk of extinction”. Stanford biologist Paul Ehrlich and his colleagues argued that “the ongoing sixth mass extinction may be the most serious environmental threat to the persistence of civilization,. Around the same time, the Daily Mail warned that -human civilization stands a 90 percent chance of collapse within decades due to defdrestation,These horrible calculations and projections come from authoritative-sounding reports issued by international agencies, conservation groups, and peer-reviewed scientific journals. But is the future of wild nature and human civilization really so poor?Data from uncontroversial mainstream sources strongly indicate that both humanity and the natural world are likely to be flourishing rather than collapsing at the end of this century. Humanity is becoming an urban species, and thafs good for the environment, since urban dwellers generally use less electricity, produce less globe-warming carbon dioxide, and have smaller land footprints than people living in the countryside. By 2100, it is estimated that 85 percent of people will be city dwellers, which would leave only 1.2 billion still living in the countryside. That means more space for the wildlife and less pollution from the agriculture.The global tree-covering area increased by 865,000 square miles between 1982 and 2016. The researchers found that gains in forest area in the mild, subtropical and northern climatic zones are offsetting declines in the tropics. The Maryland researchers owe much of that increase to "natural afforestation on abandoned agricultural land, "Furthermore, forests in mountainous regions are expanding as climate warming enables trees to grow at higher altitudes/9 they added.Humanity does face big environmental challenges in the coming century. But the scientific and economic evidence shows that most of the trends are positive or can be turned in positive direction by human wisdom. Rather than an age of extinction, the 21 st century promises to be an era of environmental renewal.8. Why does the author mention the reports in Paragraph 1?A. To give examples.B.
