Study Finds Ethical Justification To Eradicate Certain Harmful Species

“Together, we argue, these cases suggest that deliberate full extinction might occasionally be acceptable, but only extremely rarely,” the team states.

• Such humility.
• Too bad we're extinguishing many species already, as we're trying hard to destroy our very own ecosystem, without much consideration if it's not the stupidest thing we can ever do and maybe the last we will ever do? And since we're good at what we do, we're doing it at a scale and at a speed that is not leaving much hope to be able to change direction, and that won't leave much hope either to quite a few other living species we're dragging to their doom alongside with us. At least, we can rejoice knowing we will have reduced economic waste in livestock.

I think we have extincting species down pat, we don't need more practice.
