It's hard to believe, that one species can influence the entire planet. Yes, it is hard to believe.

Who influenced it before we were here and were industrialized? I know we may influence it but to say that someone can predict when the polar ice caps are going to melt but cant predict the weather 7 days in advance is a little much for me.
