  >Does the fact that we have done this thousands of times now, accidentally, without any knowledge of the species being affected, make it any better? It sure does not. After all, tens of thousands of species have gone extinct in our watch. Who knows how many of those were due to having done "this". >Does the fact that essentially all of the interspecific dependencies in the temperate and Arctic zones have shifted completely in response to simple climate change since the last glaciation, make it any better? Nope. And I seriously doubt they have shifted "completely".
