Causes for Mass Extinction
I have several friends who have bought luxurious homes in areas that should have never had home because of high water tables. During the wet seasons, one actually has his drain field draining back into his septic tank, forcing him to pump it every 2weeks. We attribute such an error to the financial aggreement between local government and a wealthy contractor.
What if the FDA, EPA, and some chemical contractor made a similar error:
"In retrospect, this may seem like one of the biggest, if not the biggest, mistakes the chemical industry has ever made," said Jane Houlihan, vice president for research at the Environmental Working Group, an activist organization.
What if the entire american population became extinct in the period of 50 years because of an inability to repopulate. Lets say teflon fad or some other chemical made everyone steril.
Just daydreaming...sigh
