It's just too easy to blame everything on the climate...! Humans have a fundamental problem of not owning up to what they have done wrong - and when they do it's too late.

It's also too easy to try to blame it all on Humans which is the politically correct thing to do today. In reality, it is a little of both. The percentage is clouded due to the "expert of the moment" waving their flag. <_<

Well, the change of climate we are experiencing now is man-made. And the loss of wildlife is due to man.

We are responsible for many awful things.
