Our lands are less productive today as a result of you and I. Yet, through careful analysis and moral considerations we can reverse our unfortunate decisions over the past 15,000 years or so. In the vast open plains that could mean the reintroduction of Megafauna, in your suburban dwellings it might mean ditching your lawn and planting natives that benefit insects, birds, amphibians and small reptiles and mammals. My ultimate aim is to "wild" our world in conjunction with human settlement AND expansion. I have no dreams of a pristine wilderness devoid of humans, yet I assert that learning from such conditions will enable us to produce ecologies that yield more than pristine wilderness, provide a strong basis for biodiversity, ecosystem resiliency and satisfy human economic pressures. We will need to change, it will start with broad scale recognition that other life does matter and humans are a cog (a very important cog) in a much larger system. Only after we understand ourselves in our proper context will we be able to make moral and ethical decisions regarding the overall well-being of ourselves, humanity and all other life in this universe. The more we learn, the better we can decide.
