    Humans are the ultimate invasive species. In fact, the majority of invasive species origins in a biome can be traced back to human activity.

    Not being eco-fash, just pointing out that we can’t exploit the land to a maximum degree and then hoist the blame onto bugs, cats and carp.

      When animals invade without the “help” of humans, it happens in a very different speed which the ecosystem can adapt to.

      And even tho I made the joke, I wouldn’t say humans are the problem. Humans lived more or less “in harmony” with nature and then came colonialism and capitalism. Humans are capable of living differently, the market is not.
