All I meant was that life always finds a way. There have been five major mass extinction events on record, each wiping out 70 - 85% of all species. Given enough time without human interference, ecosystems will recover and stabilize.

When you really think about it, it’s insane: The Industrial Revolution and the dramatic transformation of landscapes and environments only began around 200 years ago. Yet in that short time, humanity has managed to destabilize ecosystems on a global scale and it doesn't seem that we will stop anytime soon.
