Do we as humans need to do more to protect biodiversity?

[FL Knifemaker]

Well?

That is only answerable as a political question....

Trolling to get people in trouble with the Mods...

What for? The sun will burn everything up anyway in about 4 billion years.

Unless an asteroid takes us out first. I say drive it like you stole it

My answer is yes - although we need to recognize that a large population of humans will inevitably change the environment and the face of the world. We cannot keep everything as it was 100 years ago or 1000 years ago. We need to strive for "quality of life", but we definitely struggle over the definition of that term and what it will take to achieve it.

Totally. We need whales so that extraterrestrial probes don't destroy the Earth.

Rolling your eyes at the rules. That reads like you are complaining about the Holy Trinity's Rules of Talkbass - which in turn would be questioning a mod!

Calling the rules of Talkbass "The HOLY TRINITY RULES of TALKBASS" reads like you are mocking the rules and ALL the mods

Read carefully, I didn't call the rules holy, I called the new admin panel holy as the three of them together, being the supreme rulers of talkbass, could be likened, by analogy to the holy trinity and deserving, accordingly, of the utmost respect. Note the difference as the adjective, Holy, is in front of the noun Trinity, and not the noun Rules - that's how English works!

I read somewhere that true Redheads will be gone in 100 years somewhere due to it being a recessive gene.



REDHEADS are becoming rarer and could be extinct in 100 years, according to genetic scientists.
The current National Geographic magazine reports that less than two per cent of the world's population has natural red hair, created by a mutation in northern Europe thousands of years ago.
Global intermingling, which broadens the availability of possible partners, has reduced the chances of redheads meeting and producing little redheads of their own.
It takes only one red-haired parent to produce ginger-headed babies, but two redheads obviously create a much stronger possibility.
If the gingers really want to save themselves they should move to Scotland.
An estimated 40 per cent of Scots carry the red gene and 13 per cent actually have red hair.
Some experts say that redheads could be gone as early as 2060, but others say the gene can be dormant for generations before returning.
today's carriers are more prone to skin cancer and have a higher sensitivity to heat and cold-related pain.

SAVE THE REDHEADS!
