Replying to @falafelsy @jingle__belle
Me, too. At some point I concluded that the demise of the species is inevitable, due to the industrial revolution, but that without this terrible decision, we would not be so comfortably alive and talking and understanding things. We are lucky to be born so close to the end.

Our demise would have been inevitable but for the industrial revolution. We existed for 1 - 3 hundred thousand years perhaps without population growth, without much in the way of technology growth. Then our demise seemed inevitable.

The reason that our population was stable was that we were sustainable

Is that what we observe in other populations of animals? Populations are stable because they are constrained. By bad things, from an individual within that population's point of view.

No, that would be very short-sighted! I suspect that many species have evolved mechanisms that prevent them from overgrazing their food chain. Many ecosystems are probably shepherded by their apex predators.

I know of species (I'm think about kangaroos) who have a breeding response to environmental conditions that works in their favour and are also fooled by other conditions that leads to genocide. I guess there are examples covering all possibilities.
