| :: SJS / Siterunner: ''The challenge was to construct a successful model on which to build a growing, vital, U.S. Green Party. The model of party building came from an unlikely place: a small state in the hinterlands far from centers of power. In 1994 in Santa Fe, named after St. Francis of Assisi, the patron saint of the land and animals, I began drafting and eventually the process led to feeling that I was being inspired by larger, perhaps spiritual forces. Values were a foundation (with the Bear & Company book by Charlene Spretnak, [http://www.worldcat.org/title/spiritual-dimension-of-green-politics/oclc/924811085?referer=di&ht=edition "Spiritual Dimension of Green Politics"] inspiring) and political and policy ideas flowed from many sources deeply felt as if handed to me and a diverse thread of green, visionary ideas were shared as I wrote. The first draft of a national platform for a new Green party in process was ready to lift a first Green presidential campaign in 1996.''

| ''The early Greeks and Romans had a well established set of taxonomic names for species of animals and plants, based upon the macroscopically observable characteristics of organisms, with Aristotle being the chief architect of this codification; even earlier, the Egyptians and Cretans developed basic symbols and names for species important in farming and culture. It was not until the year 1686 when English naturalist John Ray introduced the concept that species were distinguished by inevitably producing the same species, though considerable morphological variation was observed within a species.''
| |
| | |
| ''Carl Linnaeus (1707–1778) formalized the taxonomic rank of species, and developed the two part naming system of binomial nomenclature that survives to current times, with genus and species names in Latin form.''

| '''''Estimation of species numbers'''''
| |
| | |
| ''Since most of the planet's species are deemed to be undiscovered, it is exceedingly difficult even to estimate the total number of species on Earth. An 2011 innovative study estimated the total number of species to be about 8.7 million, with around 86 percent of which are presently undiscovered.[2] The following represents a rough approximation of the number of species by taxonomic group, with ranges given for varying estimates of the species numbers:''
