So, of course, nothing is that straight-forward: first of all, how do we know how to distinguish between effects caused by humanity and other effects? That is, how do we make sure we're not too conservative in our conservation efforts? And to what extent are we 'part of nature', is it only the effects the industrialised world has that need to be considered? Those are just a fraction of the philosophical questions conservation biologists work with: more direct questions, though, are those about money: where do we get the money? And more importantly: how do we get the money to preserve all that life that is crucial without being cute and furry? I have feeling this should be discussed somewhere else..
