Transcript

For millions and millions of years, the planet was governed by the delicate and complex equilibria that evolved among its infinite, interconnecting forces. In the last 100 or so years, mankind has so profoundly altered the face of earth that those equilibria have been permanently obliterated. What new force will replace "Natural Equilibrium" in ruling the ecosystem? The Bureaucrat! Watch out nature! Theres a new boss in town! More wolves inwyominf! Floods in the Grand Canyon every ten...no five year! Fewer alligators in Florida! Save the cougar, let the prairie mouse go extinct! Can Humanity manage a system as complex as the ecosystem? Look at how well humans manage and understand their own economic system-- which they created! The earth has to accept him! Why? How species made him necessary!
