Birds with some much plastic in their stomachs that they crunch to the touch.
Toxic algal blooms on a scale previously unknown.
Increases of microplastics in human brains. (But no, Brainworm Bobby is more worried about vaccines.)
I don't know what the tipping point is from our fouling the planetary ecosystem. But if one comes, the effects may hit at a speed and scale to which we can't adapt.
And nobody can honestly say that we didn't have it coming.

If you're one of the Covidiots who believe that COVID-19 is "just the flu",
that the 2020 election was stolen, or
especially if you supported the 1/6/21 insurrection,
leave now.

In the ongoing argument 'ore the mark of the start of the Anthropocene I would argue the introduction of micro-plastics into the food-chain and blood-streams down to the very molecular level is the beginning of the era of human. Can't see it from space, but we have altered the chemistry of the planet
ReplyDeleteLet that sink in ... we have irreparably altered the planet
Not only fleas, planet lice, agitating the hide of a far greater organism but there's eight soon to be ten billion of us on a ball of mud that can barely sustain one. Do the math
We should be honored to witness history thus ...
The declining human birth rates worldwide are a symptom and cure for the ravage on the ecosystem that is humanity. Gaia is going to cure it's illness eventually but it won't be fun to watch. I used to think we could turn it around; now I see the change globally accelerating. We may have just solved the Fermi "paradox". If a civilization poisons it's nest before achieving interstellar capability, it's done.
