in less than two centuries, by significantly reducing the variety of species on Earth, they have irrevocably redirected the course of evolution Certainly, there have been periods in Earth’s history when mass extinctions have occurred The extinction of the dinosaurs was caused by some physical event, either climatic or cosmic There have also been less dramatic extinctions, as when natural competition between species reached an extreme conclusion Only 0.01 percent of the species that have lived on Earth have survived to the present, and it was largely chance that determined which species survived and which died out However, nothing has ever equaled the magnitude and speed with which the human species is altering the physical and chemical world and demolishing the environment In fact, there is wide agreement that it is the rate of change humans are inflicting, even more than the changes themselves, that will lead to biological devastation Life on Earth has continually been in flux as slow physical and chemical changes have occurred on Earth, but life needs time to adapt - time for migration and genetic adaptation within existing species and time for the proliferation of new genetic material and new species that may be able to survive in new environments Biên soạn: Đỗ Huyền Trang Question 36 What does the passage mainly discuss?
