They MAKE UP misleading facts to paint a narrative.
YES! Exactly. It's political! The scientists all around the world are making up lies to somehow make money in their convoluted schemes. Listen to the fossil-fuel funded politicians. They'll tell you the truth.

Do you believe these reports to be legit? Or are they being overblown? What should the OT do about this?
I am not sure, so I need funding for research.

Report - We are really screwing up the natural world
And give up that damn gun - owning one is obvious Hate Speech!

Please link me those reports.
That seems ridiculous.
This is just from a quick Google search. I can pull more up later.

Nah, I ignore them.
Just as I ignore the politicians pushing these articles.

There's no doubt we have negative impacts
But the true believers are drama queen

You don't think historical biomass numbers can be calculated to a reasonable degree, yet you call me clueless.

Sorry about that.

There is a downside to the growth of the human race. And we can't all live on top of each other.

Relatedly, biodiversity "is declining faster than at any time in human history."
The world is dynamic, and as conditions change so does "normal" or "natural". The idea that we should preserve everything in a static way is ridiculous.
Read Sapiens, most of the species that have inhabited the earth in the past have been replaced by new ones that were better adapted to the current conditions.

We cut down rainforests for resources, farmland and things like palm oil plantations.

The most remarkable info to come out of this is that we've been tracking global biomass since prehistory. It is just awesome that, since we've been able to write, we've had somebody responsible for traveling the planet and accurately adding up biomass. Awesome, and absolutely believable.
Sarcastic logic like this is one of many reasons why you can't even have a conversation about this topic with most people.
