Are we thinking straight on this?

Mother Earth is a resilent soul. She has been around for billions and billions of years. She evolves, morphs and balances all the forces that travel her way.

We on the other hand, are how old? Let's get this straight. We come onto the scene because of nature's forces. We may have evolved from tiny organisms that survive thermal vents, caustic environment and just unbelievable life chocking conditions. Maybe that, maybe aliens, maybe religious creationism.

Homo sapiens, an animal a part of nature just like any other thing, creature and life and not-so-life form on earth come onto the party very late in the game and we want to set nature straight. We get alarmed when species we are just discovering are threatened to extinction. Well the fact is, I think, more species have gone extinct in nature's billions and billions of years than homo sapiens 10's of thousands of year. And, if extinction had not occurred, the question could be would we have 'evolved" into the species we are today?

Let's get this straight. Is the question really about global warming, carbon offsets? Or, is the question can we easily fix some of these 'perceived ills' simply by doing with less, including less homo sapiens on the earth. Nature has her ways regulating life. Animals populations, evolution and existence cycles over a very long period.

Humans, since we are so highly intelligent and seemingly 'above nature' just need to stop creating so many humans at such a high rate. Investing in unproven, limited, and very short lived technology is not necessarily the best or only way.
