Now we may be in the process of murdering the rest of the system that supports human life.
We are killing out every large animal species whether or not we want to eat specific animals. Rhinoceros for their horns, for example. Effective weapons when wielded by a rhinoceros but useless in human hands.
There are two Singularities in front of us. One may be a winner and one is certainly a loser.
Human Extinction.
On the small side there are the missing amphibians, the near DDT extinction of predatory birds, and the bees.
It is in our human interest to get our act together. The United Nations failed in the same way as the Articles of Confederation. No power to tax or coerce members.
An Article V convention at the US level can't fix the big problems.
People need to act together.
