The dinosaurs made a big mistake. They should have put a carbon tax on those microbes.

I like how the last sentence compares the human race to bacteria. No agenda here, no siree.

These people are not scientists.

I was going to say it was Obamas fault but then I noticed they said it was a “humble” microbe.

Science ain’t what it used to be.

There’s just too much (grant/tax) money, and too many scientists that should have been laborers.

And then the article ends with the money quote: “Today’s mass extinction of biodiversity is similar, says Barnosky, because it is largely driven by our species”.

Yes, humankind is the modern-day microbe. We should all be sterilized for the Greater Good of Gaia.
