Impeccable timing! I just said to be the smartest species, we sure are dumb. None of the rest of the flora and fauna are the reason for extracting most of the planet, and eying the East and West’s wars du jour, maybe the planet. 😅
There's also the fact that throughout the history of civilization we have to spend more time working to exist as population density increases. India 70 hour average working week, European cave man 20 hour working week, one mammoth is a lot of food.
