Global Energy Hogs

An interesting article:

Human greed takes lion's share of solar energy - Environment - smh.com.au

It seems that we humans are consuming so much of the solar energy collected by plants that we are cutting into what is available for other species. Given the often razor-thin margins that define species survival I cannot see how this would not, in the long term, affect changes in natural species survival.

The solution is quite obvious and one we practice regularly within our own species. When someone competes with you for the resources you'd like to waste for yourself, you simply kill them off. We've got this project well under way, no need to worry.
