1. Extinction can be a natural evolutionary process.
2. Nature has operated by the Darwinian principle of “survival of the fittest”.

4. It does not make sense for us to concentrate on other species when humanity has not yet sorted its own welfare out.
5. Because of their inherent weakness, some animals should die out and be replaced by hardier species.
6. There’s no point in spending large amounts of taxpayers’ money on biodiversity policies when we have more pressing needs, such as health care and social services.
7. What matters more than anything is that humans are permitted to have the best standard of life on earth, while that privilege lasts.
