A priority-ranking strategy for threatened species?

The Environmentalist, 1983
The rate of extinction has accelerated to the point where we are probably losing one species per day right now, and we could well lose one million of Earth's 5–10 million species by the year 2000, and a good many more within the early decades of the next century.
