But the truth is as far as numbers worldwide, our pace of birth far outpaces natural death. Humans cannot keep going at the pace of birth we are. Any evolutionary biologist can tell you that when an ecosystem gets lopsided by one species, the rest of the system, and even the dominate species suffer. The bottom line is that humans need to stop thinking of ourselves as an apex and understand we are simply one species among many. And the bigger we get the more resources we need and the faster those resources are harder to find and get more damaged and polluted by our species growth.
Not that humans will, but if we were smart about it, we should care less about billionaires and short term profits, but if we cared about our own population management and resource use, we'd have a better chance extending our species ride, than what we are doing now, which is chasing short term profits instead of focusing on long term viability.
Really, again? You just can't help but blame others.
You consume. Are you willing to stop thinking about yourself fall on your sword for the good of the planet?
Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.
