Another way to look at that claim is that evolution has an end point - someplace it is going and where it will rest.
Yet now we find
Ah, but why be logical - the keyphrase is "major changes over wide areas of human activity" - that's their goal, tell me, and you, what to do!

Yet now we find
Virtually all indicators of the likely future for the diversity of life on Earth are heading in the wrong direction, a major new report says.Wait a minute - Stop the truck - if evolution is aimed in a certain direction with a destination, won't species that do not meet that perfected goal begin to slough off? So how do they know that the reduction in diversity does not simply mean that we are nearing the end of evolution?
[...]
The great challenge in meeting the biodiversity target comes in the fact that these pressures are currently projected to remain constant or to accelerate in the near future - so slowing the extinction slide would involve major changes over wide areas of human activity.
