^^ look around mate. we are destroying ourselves!

'science' as we know it is very, very young relative to the extent of human history. in the short time it's been in our hands, we have made extraordinary progress in destroying the planet. we are quickly consuming all non-renewable resources, driving new species to extinction every day, altering the climate, the ozone layer, and so forth. we're well past the half-way point. the global population is growing exponentially, and our need for resources grows with every passing day. at this rate, we won't make it another 200 years.

and we're doing it without a drop of remorse. shouldn't a responsible species' "standard code of morals" tell it not to **** in its own backyard?
