[Vision2020] Quoting E. O. Wilson's Biophilia (Was Compassion For All Life)

[Ted Moffett]

**
*The one process now going on that will take millions of years to correct is
the loss of genetic and species diversity by the destruction of natural
habitats.  This is the folly our descendants are least likely to forgive us.
*  Edward O. Wilson, *Biophilia*, 1984, p, 121

And how many people out there really really deeply care?  The indifference
of many to humanity's horrendous extermination of species on a planetary
scale raises serious questions about E. O. Wilson's "Biophilia" hypothesis.
However, in practical terms, his hypothesis is useful insofar as it may
encourage the very broad love of all life he obviously wishes to promote.
