Humans have already pretty much wiped out lobsters in the northeast.  Unmolested, they live and grow slowly.  They used to reach 40+ pounds and grow quite large, but idiot human predation has made that a thing of the past -- a 2 pound lobster is now a "big" one.

Despite what my brain tells me and my eyes show me, I believe with every "fiber of my being" that there is no way God intended for a marvelous species, gifted as Homo sapiens is, to inadvertently destroy itself and likely much of the world as we know it......by its own `clay' Hand.

When I read the report, esp on my home state, it was the projected flooding that got to me.  And my dad is out in Suffolk County Long Island.  The water's high enough already out there.  Flooding brings additional pollution problems with it especially in the industrialized, low-lying northeast.  Northern NJ has a very high water table already.  The next 20 years are going to be messy.  And unlike stevenearlsalmony, I don't think humans are all that special in the great scheme of things.
