Human beings have always been a highly adaptable species. First, when our hunter-gather ancestors started constructing tribal villages to farm 8000 years ago. Then building on larger scale cities that consume greater amounts of resources. Over the course of this time, we can see that our species have been in competition with other animals for food and space. During this period, we developed technology for the very means to make our lives’ easier. Rob Nelson from the website Untamed Science best put it this way “we have intellect, which is the greatest competitive advantage to be had. We can use our brains to build tools and technologies that make us seemingly undefeatable. Later the author noted, “our utilitarian attitude has cost us millions and millions of acres in forests, wetlands, coral reefs, and other precious habitats around the globe.”
