   That is more comprehensible, but just remember that long before   
   mankind, other organisms destroyed the natural systems they lived in.   
      
   During the Archean Eon, all the life on this planet lived   
   anaerobically. There was little free oxygen until the cyanobacteria   
   came along and produced what scientists refer to as the Great Oxidation   
   Event. They filled the atmosphere with oxygen and they live on   
   as the symbiotic chloroplasts within plant cells.   
      
   The natural world is constantly changing and always has been. We are   
   just the latest of a long line of disruptions.
