Sunlight drives light on earth - Photosynthesis. Humans are consumers of stuff/use the planet and dump waste. Humans are a major part of catastrophes floods, oil spills, hurricanes
 Spotted owl- 20 species now 6 species- others in danger is Polar bears, Pollock and salmon.
People were hunters and gatherers then became farmers and now 80-85% of people moved to big cities. Their highest piority is to get things they want but dont need.
