These forces reversed magnetic poles, moved continents, turned deserts into seas and vice versa. You think Earth is in danger! That is hysterical! It is our existence that is fragile. Earth and all of her glorious creatures will be feeding on our corpses as 10 ton cockroaches master light speed space travel. Shy of a nuclear blast there's nothing we have in our arsenal that can compare to the forces unleashed every day here on earth. I like potatoes.

true, the process always has been there but humans accelerate it to an unnatural level. My one course in ecology convinced me of it, and I know it's only one course. I'm no expert, but I refuse to believe that we don't affect our environment.

Eh, whatever. Consume less, save more...

and EAT potatoes.

has nothing to do with republican or democrat. But judging you from your assumption is it safe to call you a "Bleeding Heart..."? These processes have been going on since long before man set foot on this planet. Do you think Mt. St. Helen's was less destructive or more destructive than salting a pond in Louisiana? Or even the Tunguska impact in Syberia that levelled an entire forest completely flat. Man can't even come close to this level of destruction. Yes, we pollute the planet and effect our environment but to think that salting that pond somehow puts you on the most wanted list is like thinking stealing a snickers is going to get u a death row interview with Oprah. I hope you drive a prius.

that's a crazy story. you can't really look at it as men destroying the environment though, that was a freak accident, it's not like intentionally clear cutting a rain forest. for all we know the environment was changed for the better,

"Within two days, what had previously been an eleven-foot-deep freshwater body was replaced with a 1,300-foot-deep saltwater lake. The lake's biology was changed drastically, and it became home to many species of plants and fish which had not been there previously."

From 11' to 1300' ! that's a lot more room for animals to live and grow in

Cockroaches may very well survive cataclysmic events, from abrupt climate changes, to thermonuclear blasts, intentional or otherwise, which we might very well not be able to do, but they will never space travel. They have no opposable thumbs.

oh a debate!

So some of you guys thing we influence of environment, the flip side is the environment influences us. Let's face it as humans evolve, we will consume and destroy alot of things, but once the human race reaches it's zenith, i think we will try and replace or make things better then they once were. Or if "faith" decides to end us with a catastrophic event we wont' have the power to change it.
