Do you want the Earth's natural resources to deplete?

Having such number would cause massive deforestation and it can lead to the extinction of multiple species

We need to keep our biosphere in balance or else all of us die instead of some.

Just think of the consequences of this... It is more reasonable to kill than to produce.

I would cut down the whole forest and shoot all the animals myself, if we could get more humans to live from it. Human life is worth far more then the lives of forests.

This debate gives me an idea!

314d1, are you ignorant or you just don't know any science? If you say you don't know science, I have nothing to say. If you are ignorant then you killed us all.

Rain forests provide 20% of the oxygen in the world. Also, in my opinion, I would value the lives of hundreds of species compared to some stupid humans. We've managed to cut down at least 50% of the world's species, and we have practically destroyed parts of our own planet. The animals? Nope. Unless introduced, animals are not wasteful. They are in balance.

Only a thousand left in the wild. I trust you are aware?

Not many of these left either.

I agree with 314d, no animal is more important than a person, and that includes all the animals that are supposedly &quoteople" (apes, dolphins, and whatever else.)

p.s. No matter what you say, I still think that the animal rights people are somewhat crazy. (considering PETA dressed up as fish to protest dead fish being thrown during the serving process.)

Little image.

PETA is not to be considered an animal rights organisation as they currently hardly save any, instead they kill thousands. Because apparently death is better than being a loved pet.

And now stop thinking 314d1 actually means what he says. He knows that humanity couldn't survive without a stable ecosystem, he's not that stupid. I mean, merely the disappearance of bees would mean a disaster to humanity, so, eh..

Are we done talking about that now?

Mosquitoes are a species we can afford to lose. Their death, basically, wouldn't cause much change in the ecosystem (their predators would just have to focus on their other forms of food).

mosquitoes are eaten by crayfish, dragonflies, frogs, bats, birds, bees and many more.

also do mosquitoes help keep ecosystems balanced by transmitting diseases. diseased animals are easier for carnivores to capture and disease keeps the numbers of certain animals from getting too large for the food supply.

Like I said...their predators would just have to focus on their other forms of food.

Well apparently we have 314d1 to help us keep their population under control haha

gotten into it.

your partly true. and so am i.

in the long run it wont do damage. (except for some fish)
but that is whit all species. eventually the gaps will be closed.
on the short run however. i does allot of damage because because the rest of the food chain expect this biomass to be there. allot of reptiles and fish will die because they are not there.

Animals are older than humans. We came about 700 million years after the first animal/organism!

And we are animals. That means all of us are created equally.

Everything matters to us, from a tree (which offers oxygen and paper), a pig (offers us pork), and rivers (which gives us water).

Dieing is natural, and we must let it happen. If not, Earth will lose all it's resources. If you think this will populate more humans, then you are wrong. More humans will die of famine, diseases, and lack of oxygen.

Robots should be shunned from society!
