Of course, the reason why there is industrial-level agriculture and 
climate change is that the world is grievously over-populated with 
humans. And it's getting worse.

            It's particulary interesting that if a species (such as the
            Eskimo Curlew) is not seen in 50 years, it is considered
            extinct. Actually in the mid-seventies, one was seen just
            south of Oak Hammock Marsh (Manitoba) by David Hatch, the
            preeminent birder in the province at that time.<br>
