    i think it's great that you're aware that there's misinformation out there but you're really erring on the side of ruin here. if YOU'RE wrong the entire human race could go extinct. if WE'RE wrong, oops, the air is cleaner.

    • depends on the regulation. error could cause large food shortages. look at corn ethanoldeathboy
    • i feel more secure in natural selection controlling than government policy on the issue. i think humans error far more frequentlydeathboy

    • of bonesdeathboy
    • yes, humans adapt. we won't let people starve because of pollution regulations, we'll change the way we grow food. that needs revamping as well. this is all part of the "industrialization" and "adaptation" you keep referring to.scarabin

    • the only way "nature will sort it all out" is by its creatures figuring out how to not ruin it for ourselves. THIS is evolution.scarabin
    • evolution and adpatation isnt done from policy. policy creates a false cost reward bubble.deathboy
    • policy creates housing bubbles. perverse incentives instead on natural state incentivesdeathboy
    • i think that's an incredibly myopic view. policy has done a lot for a lot of people. just because it's a rule doesn't mean it's automatically badscarabin
    • bad. what you're expecting is a sort of reverse entropy herescarabin
