Human race committing self extinction?
Jan 18^th, 2015 at 12:50pm

As the ecosystems that sustain life are driven beyond the boundaries of sustenance mankind will demise at its own hands. The good news is that Gizmo and cockroaches will fight for the title of the last species.

http://www.washingtonpost.com/national/health-science/scientists-human-activity-...

Quote:

At the rate things are going, the Earth in the coming decades could cease to be a “safe operating space” for human beings. That is the conclusion of a new paper published Thursday in the journal Science by 18 researchers trying to gauge the breaking points in the natural world.

The paper contends that we have already crossed four “planetary boundaries.” They are the extinction rate; deforestation; the level of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere; and the flow of nitrogen and phosphorous (used on land as fertilizer) into the ocean.

“What the science has shown is that human activities — economic growth, technology, consumption — are destabilizing the global environment,” said Will Steffen, who holds appointments at the Australian National University and the Stockholm Resilience Center and is the lead author of the paper.

Its the capitalist religion.They refuse to acknowledge the obvious because it threatens their ideology. These are the lunitics that confront us and we can go on just complaining about it or we can fight back for the survival of mankind and our planet. We are as much at fault for doing nothing while they knowingly destroy it all. Yes most of them know but pretend otherwise because they reason it won't effect them when they're dead.

LTYC was banned when Gizmo was left a tearful blubbering mess cowed in a corner. Gizmo's mother seduced the BBS owners to relieve it's pathetic spawn's misery.

Neat trick, given my mother passed away 3 and a half years ago (and thanks for reminding me) Angry

Always am truthful.

Hahaha wrong again (what a surprise) I have a lot of friends, both here in Australia, and elsewhere in the world.

On these boards, I am always truthful (occasionally wrong, but never deliberately lie)
