Just started to read further into this post and I am against whaling as being done by the Japanese. It just does not make sense.

But I do take exception to your statement above that humans are directly responsible for the extinction of 99% of anything.
Got to tell you, that sounds like the kind of tripe that is spewed by the Al Gore University Greenie carbon footprint types that has been used to indoctrinate kids in schools for decades now and is based on theories and conjecture of people with an agenda.
Just like global warming.
That being said, mankind has done a lot of bad things to our ecology, rainforest destruction is one big example. Pollution of our oceans and streams is another.
We have also, especially in this country done a great deal to clean up our act. We have also paid billions to help other nations get their act together thru direct treaties and thru the U.N
We can also do a lot more, but I am not going to go live in a cave and eat sprouts and kill off every other human born so that a species of tri-segmented sponge beetles can survive in a world that nature itself is constantly evolving species wise.

Nor am I in favor of killing every other child born...but if we don't eventually take some pre-conception action to get the Earth's human population under control, natural selection, POST conception will do it for us...too many resource-wasting humans aboard this little dust ball we're ridin' around space on...it'll all run out at this rate...we need to start remembering that we don't OWN this place...just borrowing it for the time we are here, and whatever's left gets handed over to our children...hope we're leaving enough to sustain them...

you said it Reel. If we would quit babying all those murderers and other assorted thugs and just put them out of our missery, that would help a lot. And just think about how good it would be for our environment when we get rid of all that methane gas they excrete while locked up!!!

Legal or not, don't ya think the Japanese captain and crew eventually get tired of being screwed with by these jokers? I think I might veer to starboard myself.

Not trying to stir the pot, just trying to wrap my feeble mind around this.

So out of all the species to have lived on the planet, there are only 1% of them left on Earth?
