So what this seems to be saying is that, 10 wow, this and this conservationist could 11 still, um, do this. 12 So it seems to be defining for us two problems to start off the 13 sentence, but finishing my saying, 14 we could still do this. And that's all hinted to us by the use 15 of a while. And while scientists may debate, 16 the methods used to calculate is probably an extinction by law. 17 The set number of years will need to be defined these two problems. 18 So conservationists could identify at-risk species using this standard of measurement. 19 So here are, while there are these problems, 20 they could still do this.
