That,s funny ,there have been mass extinctions for millions of years. Some of them were as high as 90% of everything and we weren,t here to create it. Get used to the idea "nothing is as sure as change". Contrary to popular belief the planet does not care if the human race is here or not, we are not the most important thing. Think Soylent Green.
There have been mass extinctions in the past over millions of years, but humans and human activity are main causes of extinction now and it is rapidly accelerating due to habitat loss. Oh, but I forgot, humans are at the top of the food chain so who cares?!

The ignorance of modern man and corporations like Monsanto could have a distinct bearing on future extinctions.

Put your engineering mind to good use do something positive. Obviously, you don't understand scientific principles. Just go watch TV and eat TV dinners---life will be just fine for you. They rest of us will move forward to the future. The old school is gone, time to grow up.

So you accuse me of sticking my head in sand because I asked for proof or examples of "tearing apart the earth"? Since when is asking for proof sticking one's head in the sand? It seems to me those not providing proof to back up their claims are the ones with their head in the sand. For something that is supposedly so rampant nobody cannot provide one example. That tells me they are exaggerating or are simply liars.

Socialism: Ideas so good that they have to be made mandatory.
Socialism isn't perfect either. But, at least the liberals don't stay awake at night thinking about the war we created out of greed and lies. Too many people dead due to past conservative "principles"! The problem with conservatives is that they are selfish and greedy (and unrealistic). They care more about legitimizing rape than dealing with the real issues in this country.

it is called survival of the fittest. after all isn't extinction of species part of evolution? oh as for that inane attack on conservatives, it was Republican Theodore Roosevelt who created national PARKS AS WELL AS WILDLIFE PRESERVES. It was Republican Richard Nixon who created the EPA. sorry liberals historical facts trump emotional slander anyday.

You are obviously too ignorant of scientific principles to understand anyway, so why not just give it up!
You are obviously a dolt who cannot follow the specifics or context of a discussion you butted into by making yet more false claims like your comrades on this thread. My only issue was calling out a liar or exaggerator out on a claim they made. I did not claim anything or make any assertions so you are the one who is too ignorant to continue so please, give it up. You embarrass yourself.

Well, with half the libs saying don't have kids and the other half homosexual I really don't see what the problem is! But that's just me!
Part of the problem is people who hunt elk and deer when we already have grocery stores full of meat!! The gun is an extension of the male body to conservatives.

This problem is greater than all of us and is a bipartisan issue. At least Obama and Al Gore care enough to listen to the scientists on this one. And, some of us do conserve, recycle, donate, and care about the environment. Conservatives just care about the "bottom line". I am so sick of hearing about the greed and the lies coming from the conservative/ republican party as they try to screw the world to fill their pocketbooks. As saying goes, "when the last tree is cut, all the streams are polluted and the air is thick with smog, you can eat your money"!

no the public possession of firearms is the last constitutional check on abusive federal power. the 2nd amendment has nothing to do about hunting and everything to do with personal liberty. by the way hunting controls the population of game animals. having lived in michigan, there is nothing worse then the spring thaw uncovering numerous deer carcasses that starved during the winter. since many predators such as wolves bears and coyottes are not as numerous as they used to be. let us also remember just how much money hunters and fisherman contribute to state treasuries to support our wildlife, enviorment, and park systems.

The fossil record. Studying the layers gives a fairly accurate indication about when, how long and in what concentration individual species existed within a given area. Didn't you learn about that stuff in school?
