Ah, humanity as a disease... how trite. I'm always shocked how environmentalists seem to forget that human beings are a natural part of Earth's environment. Lower life forms are not "pure" and we do not "taint" them. They use their environment just like we do. Beaver's build dams, carnivores eat other animals, the world turns and goes on.

My favorite part is how nice they assume everyone thinks a world without humans would be wonderful. How is that wonderful? WE DON'T EXIST. Besides, how an Weisman be so sure about how the world would be without us? We have great impact on this planet and on other species. Assuming vrything would simply fall back into balance assumes that the other animals won't assume new power roles in this new humanless world.

We are not on this planet to serve this planet. We are here to thrive and flourish, and the best way towards this goal is to conserve the planets resources for our own uses and survival, not simply because the earth is inherently "better" without us. These idiotic notions of "everyone agree to have one kid, OK? That cool? Great, deal." need to be exposed for what they are: Nonsense.
