Why are humans so arrogant that they think they can destroy the Earth?

Question

Isn't it more accurate to say we will destroy ourselves and the Earth will cleanse itself and recover?

Speaking mainly about "global warming" and an "inconvenient truth" type thinking. Global warming will kill us off...not destroy the Earth???

Answer 1

We will destroy ourselves and I think the Earth will recover.

Answer 2

Good question if anyone caught Dennis Miller appearing on Leno's Tonight Show he pointed out an article from a magazine printed in 1975 about how "Global Cooling" was a threat to the earth and they were searching for ways to heat it up and melt certain ice polar caps, now here in 2006 "Global Warming" is the threat. Maybe natural causes are responsible for these phenomenas and not us arrogant humans.

Answer 3

"Global warming" is a political maneuver. There is not enough science behind it to attract attention in the scientific community. Less that 10 % of scientist will admit that there is even any data worth looking at. There is money behind this idea-just like the freon scare 15 years ago.

Answer 4

Well, if you think about it, with all the nuclear power and such, i think they might have the power to maybe split the earth in half.

But then again, your right. The earth will recover and have some other species to destroy the rest, and recover, and the process will repeat. I didnt make much sence did i?

Answer 5

Yes

Answer 6

Answer 10
