Ok, I usually don't take issue with sensitive subjects, but...

I'm confused. It's O dark thirty and I can't sleep, so I'm reading stuff on the internet. Am I reading things right? People are suffering big time in California because of a fish called a delta smelt, affecting food production to the entire US due to the water being turned off to a bunch of farms. Meanwhile, there's an announcement of a discovery of 100 new plant species, 28 new fish species, 18 new reptile species, 2 new mammal species, and 1 new bird species (is there a singular for species?). Sounds like the normal course of evolution and survival to me. Humans are a very small part of the scheme of things. Forget the delta smelt. Let it potentially go extinct. Let the farmers live...
