Actually, I tend to look at the human species as the new ice age. The similarities are there: We're prolly gonna destroy most of what we need to survive. Then earth will recover and develop into a new direction. Just as it did after the ice ages.

ok sure, the matter, the assortment of energy roughly and largely in its current dynamic arrangement will still be there... but as for the whole, and as for its level of animation, and to consider its inhabitants as part of it, we're still killing it. humanity itself could be responsable for the loss of the atmosphere (thats right i said LOSS, not change) and drastic changes to the core.
idk if that makes sence to other people, i struggled with the wording quite a bit.
lemme put it another way with a thread i found i had to remake....

i was sure i had made that thread before, but couldnt find it anywhere.
but i agree with you on one point... death of the human race wouldnt really be a bad thing. ... assuming we cannot change to meet our potential, assuming we are to continue like the virus we so constantly prove we are.
