Didnt David Attenbrough say that the explosion in human population is a greater threat to the planet than global warming.
I think he said The planet can survive with out humans but we cannot survive without Biodiversity and its space for other living things that will destroy the planet
animals could well adapt to a hotter planet over time but not if weve killed them all off by over populating everylast land mass.
As for the Gulf stream that would'nt be there if it wasnt for the last round of global warming,so we and it are only here because of the last melting of the ice cap which covered most of europe.
As for cows contributing to global warming I think there were far bigger populations of wild animals of this size about before man destroyed them all,
one of the early european settlers in america noted that you could walk from one side of the plains to the other on the backs of Bison thats again before we destroyed them.
man will destroy all land animals before global warming has a chance to kill us,were losing something like 50 species a day to overpopulation and deforestation.
hopefully nature will find a way to overcome this,its tried before
Black death/Flu in 1918/Aids and perhaps Bird Flu at the end of the day were just another life form with so called greater intelligence which most of the time weve used to either kill each other H bomb or animals through greed and pleasure.
perhaps we just dont deserve to be the planets guardians"
