RE: Pathological Aspect Of Extinction #2; Background Rate Of Extinction

in #steemstem6 years ago

WOW!!! Can't believe am just seeing you.. I love this simplicity of this write up. It's really nice and wonderful.

I like the fact that you're seeing extinction under normal circumstances unlike the usual way we see it. We believe extinction happens because human prey on animals. Not considering what might eventually happen if birth rate is lower than death rate. That's also.

Thank you for your feedback. Yes before going through the materials for this article, I also thought that extinction is something which is abnormal. It turns out that, it's completely normal.

Yeah. Extinction feels impossible for humans. But looking at it from the death rate/birth rate angle and considering the population of the world currently, do you think it's possible for human to go into extinction??

That's one interesting questions that I've wondered since the day I've decided to write this article. The answer is, I'm not sure. I don't think a complete extinction is possible unless there is an event which occurs in the future that wipes out every single thing on the planet like what happens to the poor dinosaurs. Eventually, if Homo Sapiens is meant to be obliterated, it can mean either, the world's destruction or the earth will be taken over by an alien species, or another new Homo would appear. Whatever it is, life will always find a way.
