Okay, a chap I know in real life emailed this to me, no words just the link and I watched it. At the end of his arguement he challenges people to find flaw's in it in a process of elimination for policies on Enviromental Enginearing. So, I will give 10M isk to whoever can find a logical flaw that destroys this arguement.... I seriously can't

Originally by: Star Gazer07 It's too simplified. There's way more factors then just yes, no, true, false. This guy really is making an uneducated guess, not an educated one.
That is true, I am only studying it at an end of High school level but all the examples and studies I have done slot roughly into one of those 4 options. Even colonising other planets comes into column A. It does seem to come up with a proof by contradiction that we need to act regardless if it is real or not because the possible conseqences of inaction outweigh the consequences of acting and not needing to.

Adonis, I will assume your skyhook is an orbital elevator? I have also thought we should work on these to expand humanitys horizons, but a heat sink? Thats a new one..... and nanotubes are the only thing with enough tensile stenghth that we know of, but we should be able to get one built within the next few decades (theoreticaly). We would need a few OE though to do that at a faster rate than we are building it up and being on one side of the Earth while the other is radiating heat ect. The main problem will be who builds the first one, whoever does will be the unrivaled superpower of the Earth, so whoever owns it will be a state and hence military run. Think of it as an arms race as soon as one starts being built, the fact that the countries straddeling the equator are not the best places to build such an expensive instalation dosen't help..... I am hopeful Britian/EU can get one built on Ascention Island, it's accessable by sea and is British territory near the equator  Also the person who was first to contradict the arguement will be sent isk asap.

Originally by: Cipher7 And if the other animals don't like it, tough.
Some animals actualy took it seriously when we told their species to "GTFO, adapt or die".

Nope, man can outsmart nature. We get caught out a few times but when we do it rarely happens again if we find a way around it. We are getting more advanced faster than nature can evolve, in time we will start adding 1 year to the expected human lifespan per year, at the moment we add a few weeks a year to the human lifespan or something like that. Note we know can perform brain surgery and the human body has barely changed in the last 10 000 years.

All it takes is a plague or a virus to knock down the whole house of cards.
The Spanish Flu killed more people than WW2.
Or how bout that nice Bubonic plague.
HIV is a good one, not only kills ya, but also inhibits sex cuz everybody's scared that you might have it. That should cut down the birth rate a bit, especially in Western countries that have a high awareness of it.
Man is but one of nature's creatures. So far its most powerful and cunning creation.
I bet the dinosaurs thought they were pretty hot stuff too. All big and bad with sharp teeth. All it took was a climate change to give em all dirtnaps.
The spannish flu is presumed to be a strain of bird flu. There is mass funding to create a vaccine for the H5N1 strain, and some people have gotten it and survived it. HIV will eventualy be dealt with, maybe not this decade but it will be dealt with, take nanotechnology and develop an artificial immune system, maybe happening within the current century thus rendering HIV to an inconvenience like mumps today. With Sex yea it reduces the birth rate, but we will find way's around it, sex is too important to the human psycology to not try and come up with solutions.
