"We are all, as that old Scotsman on
Dad's Army proclaimed with relish,
doomed.  The question remains exactly
when that doom might arrive. The average
lifetime of a species is about a million
years. Since our own human species has
been around, mostly in Africa, for a
maximum of 100,000 years, we might have
used up only one-10th of our allotted
span. But in that geologically short
time, we have changed the Earth more
than any species before us. In fact, we
may already have outstayed our welcome."

 Without Us by Alan Weisman
