It is true that humans invaded their homes by deforestation and pollution. No other species have affected other species' well beings as much as humans have did so far. Hence we are a species who can be successful, but not successful.

I would disagree; no other animal on earth practices totalitarian agriculture or embarks on deliberate and knowing attempts to drive other species to extinction. Ants may farm aphids, but they don't destroy every insect in their territory that isn't an aphid. Lions may drive hyenas from their territory, but they don't attempt to exterminate them en masse. Humans have been living and shaping the world around us for thousands of years, but it's the advent of totalitarian agriculture that seeks to convert a diversity of biomass into a relatively small number of species. For every plant driven to extinction we have monoculture fields of soy/wheat/corn. For every wolf shot by ranchers we have hundreds of cows. Sure, maybe I'm just a "dirty hippie/commie/Libtard/cuck" but lost diversity is dangerous; it sets up a house of cards so that a single disease or pest can wipe out vast sections of life. Then what do we replace them with? We're losing a staggering amount of insects, agriculture is f

Lighter In Park Jung Yeon's Hand - have to agree with you on this one. How many millennia have people been around, and didn't totally mess up every ecosystem we were in. And we were in every ecosystem. Humans didn't start to take over until the Industrial Revolution. Before that, we pretty much lived within our environment. Humans have put everything out of BALANCE.

The two are not exclusive, you have to face what you are and what you do to your environment to truly be able to change... until you say you are good or it's someone else's fault, or that you are just a very successful specie, you'll never change. Facing yourself, being upset and depressed is the first step...

Thank you! All this species oriented racism was getting boring.

Adina, unfortunately, that's exactly what "successful" people do, and they are not willing to change.

I don't believe that MANY people feel guilty, Mathias, many people are ignorant and arrogant; if they aren't confident (because of their human superiority, or because they believe that God loves them and will always save them) they are hopeful, it's easy to sell hope. But hope without action is an excuse.

You move to an area and you multiply and multiply until every natural resource is consumed and the only way you can survive is to spread to another area. There is another organism on this planet that follows the same pattern. Do you know what it is? A virus.

Thank you for this comment.

No. We are an alien species dropped off on this planet as seedlings and eventually evolved into our current state. We invade and destroy every territory on earth.

Lighter In Park Jung Yeon's Hand - that is not true. When algae evolved into producing oxygen it killed about 2/3 of all life on earth in a very short time it was the biggest mass extinction the planet has ever seen and changed life on earth and earth itself like nothing that came after it. We are very, very far away from that.

Hey Lighter In Park Jung Yeon's Hand: I'd like to introduce you to the lowly beaver...

Amen.

I like your short explanation more than my long one, you're doing good with and at spreading love :)

Dad's nuts?

Good idea.

Africa?

This isn’t only pictures of the Americas there’s other places in the world. Native Americans and Aztecs were here also. And should humans not go anywhere animals aren’t? So? Space? If we find microorganisms on mars should we not go there either?

Leo, animals were first on any continent.
