we have the power to make the world what we want it to be and we should use that power.
Tell us why you are better off because the dodo and the passenger pigeon are extinct. Actually on second thought, dont.
It is impracticable as well as impossible to keep every species that ever existed or will exist alive, that is just a fact. That was not even remotely my point, I shouldn't have to tell you my point if you reread my post and comprehend it.
The whole argument is a fallacy, it doesn't matter if its man made or not. we have the power to make the world what we want it to be and we should use that power. It's natural for species to become extinct, should we not do anything and become extinct because its natural? Terraforming the world is a natural advance of any civilization if it wants to survive, it is no different than protecting that world from space born objects.
As an argument this picture makes a good case...1 species vs billions of species..some days I buy this argument more than others
