Fertility is significantly dropping in the east and most European countries even in India is down to 2.0.
I don’t need a lesson on climate change all I’m saying is we should be open to all avenues in saving and recreating ecosystems knowing humanities deficiencies

Exactly there’s such as small percentage of people that give a shit about biodiversity on the planet so imo having the technology to resurrect species in order to boost lost ecosystems should be developed alongside long term education of populations that are responsible

Maybe we need to develop the technology further to address the extinctions that we are causing

The Return of the Dire Wolf Colossal Biosciences has genetically engineered the first dire wolf to live in over 10,000 years. Here's what that means for other extinct species.

Modern humans may have descended from at least two ancestral populations Modern humans may have descended from at least two ancestral populations, which diverged 1.5 million years ago and then reconnected 300,000 years ago.

A recent genetic study suggests that modern humans descended from at least two ancestral populations that split around 1.5 million years ago, then reconnected around 300,000 years ago with 1 group contributing 80% and the other 20% to the modern human genome⚱️🏺
