h sapiens is opening a whole of niches
and it can cause an explosion of adaption and evolution
No, actually humans tend to reduce the complexity of habitats and remove
niches, not increase them.
obviously someone who has never done home maintenance
and tried to figure out how mice get where they get
but thats theres even a there where they can get
No, someone who's done ecological work in habitats simplified by
development.
You might want to try to learn what a niche actually is before you start
tossing the term around as if you did know. Getting mice doesn't mean
you've increased niche space.
Here's a hint to put you well on your way to getting a clue - where are the
predators (and their niche space) that would normally eat the mice?
the cat is on the fence
the raccoons are in the storm drain
the hawk is waiting on the telephone pole
and there are coyotes wandering the neighborhood
the environment is being changed
but it is not becoming less complex
rather its a different kind of complexity
sorry binky but h sapiens cannot destroy all life on earth
and all doom stories about that are nonsense
what we can do is convert into a system that can no longer support human life
as for your ecological fieldwork
science isnt about changing or preserving the system under study
thats for politics
its about studying the system for whatever it is
and making intelligent predictions about how it will respond
mixing science and politics pollutes science
