I think humans have a lot to answer for when it comes to the environment, and not enough is being done, by enough people/countries, to arrest the slide...I think, if animals could speak, they'd tell us how disgusting our behaviours have been.

I agree with this thought, animals have great experience in survival and adaptation, they would give us some good advice and teachings.
