| Interesting topic. Ecologists argue that we're in the midst of another mass extinction, but it's primarily our fault. I tend to agree (being one myself). The vast majority of extinctions we've caused and are currently causing is due to habitat destruction.
Will it be our demise? I don't think so. I do think at some point there will be some kind of major event that will severely reduce our population, but I doubt that we'll end up extinct any time soon. |
