I think the point is that we are causing change at such a rapid rate that they won't be able to adapt.

Life is amazingly resilient. 100% agree. The relatively quick warming event of this century that's predicted by the vast majority of studies is unlikely to completely wipe out live on earth, or even the human race. I look at it a little bit more like an evolutionary event. As a race we've already caused the extinction of several species. That's evolution. The stronger species killing off weaker ones. We try to stop this from happening, and we should, but it doesn't always work. I hear alot about birds flying into a building's glass windows and how terrible the problem is - how many birds are being killed. People are trying to devise ways to change the glass so that not as many birds die, as they should. However, this is also an evolutionary event. The birds who don't fly into windows and kill themselves will survive and eventually as a species they will adapt. Climate change is likely to do the same. Some species that would have otherwise lived will die. Some humans who would have otherwise lived will probably die too. -Cameron ... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/message.cfm/messageid:359448 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/unsubscribe.cfm
