Hmmm… starting to notice a trend? Human involvement appears to have a whole lot to do with that “natural selection” argument offered.  Okay, fine… so we are causing some species to go extinct.  What difference does that make?  Well, apart from the obvious moral and quality of life issues, loss of species can harm us and our existence in ways we’re only starting to understand.  The birds, as well as bees and butterflies of our planet are important pollinators. Without pollinators, crops may flower but won’t fruit, hence no food makes it to the supermarket making higher prices and less food available.  Hmmm, that could be problem, couldn’t it?
