Try to stay with me here. Ecologists aren't trying to halt evolution, they are trying to slow down the acceleration caused by humans so our grandchildren don't end up paying with their lives for our hubris. I would really like to hear your reasoning that those efforts will bring us to extinction. It should be a hoot.
And fyi, the "scientists" you're listening to are hired guns for the oil industry, hell bent on squeezing the last drop of peak oil $$ out of your pockets before they're forced to close up shop. They could adapt to new business realities and take advantage of a growth industry instead, but why bother? They'll be dead, and die damned rich, so why would they care?
No, it's time you stay with logic for a change. Science should NEVER come from one source, period. That's what's wrong with the scientific community lately and why nothing new has been found. Also ... no, not all "other" scientists are paid by the oil companies, that's another fearmongering myth told by the environuts. The truth is that most are actually self paid or work on donations from the "lesser" sources, they are ignored only because they are not funded by the environut sheep.
Many scientists have come forward after retiring to say that they were paid off by said environmental companies, told to publish what they wanted or lose their funding. Others were fired when they disagreed with them. Reality is too complex for just one finding to be truth, science cannot be so simplified. Basically, when the earth finally does decide to change enough that we cannot survive, we will have nothing to protect ourselves from those inevitable changes, because it will be wasted for environmentalism by people who are too ignorant to look at all the science.
The fact is, the earth is changing, as it always has and always will do, these changes have always caused mass extinctions, and the changes continually occur closer to each other. That is fact, that is not science it is history. Now, add that fact to the findings of many scientists, the changes are those which will cause huge amounts of destruction to humanity, the need is not to try to stop something we cannot stop, but to find a way to survive it. Oil companies are of no concern for one major reason, oil is limited and running out. There isn't much left and at the rate we are burning it, it won't last much more than 20 to 50 years. Oh well, we need a new source, that's for certain, but the ones that environmentalists are pushing for will destroy our food supply as well as the world economies. Does this sound like the environmentalists care about life? No they don't, they care about the same thing the oil companies do, money, period.
