Extinction events seem to be part of the process.

Human history is a succession of extinction events. Anyone thinking this will not happen again is kidding themselves.

I can't remember who said it - it was some years ago now. We had reached our level of evolution, and were starting to go backwards. I see that everyday now.

Probably Stephen Hawking. He was pretty switched on.

The theory of evolution is that living things adapt to the changes in their environment through natural selection of the fittest.

For probably 100+ years, humans have stopped developing through changes to the environment and have instead adapted the environment to suit themselves.
