  1. “Humans obviously don’t have the capability to end all life on earth, ”

    in a sense yes we do. russia and the U.S have so many nukes we can bomb the world over 17 times. the only thing the might survive would be roaches and germs LOL

  2. I thought George Carlin was a pretty together dude. But this is the stupidest thing I’ve ever heard. I think what George fails to realize is that of those 25 species of animal dying off every day, many of them are not disappearing by their own unfortunate inability to adapt in the natural evolutionary cycle–its bc of human interference. Whether its poaching, burning the ***** out of rain forests, over fishing, or just good ol fashion poisoning, we’re killing them off. not mother nature.

  3. So who killed of the dinosaurs humans didn’t. His point its natural selection.

    So whats gonna kill us of haha?

  4. I like George Carlin, and to a certain extent agree with him here (humanity is pretty god-damn fleeting and insignificant in the grand scheme of things) but not wholly. I know I’d feel a bit better about there being less pollution and whatnot, at least try to make our stay on the planet a bit better.

  5. this video has really got me thinking. I’d say I’m somewhat of an environmentalist… but this does make a lot of sense.

  6. If there an animal we kill we probably are making more of them anyway, we kill cows, we breed cows, simple

  7. Carlin’s point isn’t that we don’t have any effect on anything. He’s saying that we’re just driving our selves to extinction. The planet has gone through worse things than this. We haven’t. At the end of the day we’re the ones who have to pay for it.

    Our only purpose in life was to make plastic for the earth cuz it couldn’t make it itself.

    That last part was a joke.

  8. Thank you George!!!

    Anyone in North America driving to work alone for 30 minutes, living in a single family large home, having 5 kids, and driving everywhere – who then thinks they are an “environmentalist” due to their cloth grocery bags and ceramic coffee mug they bring to work – should be forced to shut the hell up!

  9. 17 times is absolutely impossible. Land area-wise, it would take thousands of nukes to cover california alone.

  10. A) Rights aren’t real. Either you have the ability to do something or you don’t. (More of Carlin’s words)
    B) Who’s going to stop humanity from doing what it does?
    C) We can do whatever we want because the Earth doesn’t give a *****. The Earth will still be here. And we aren’t going to destroy it. Humanity does not have the power to stop the Earth from existing.

  11. Why are humans excluded from the proccess? Why should nature not adapt to another creature’s population boom and adaptations?

    I mean, if a creature develops a new defense mechanism that works most of the time against a predator, the predator adapts, it doesn’t whine about some other creature wrecking the ecosystem.

  12. I love that heckling ******* eco-nazi who just wont shut the ***** up and how Georgie handles it. Just ignored the little ***** and like a child he decides he’s going to keey crying until he noticed.

  13. You IGNORANT RETARDS don’t get it. If you ever heard Carlin speak on the subject, you would know that he HATED how we mistreat the Earth. He would speak of the Hopi Indians, over development, and how we’re ******** up the planet. Then, he makes a JOKE about environmentalists and you retards take him seriously. That’s why I wish he had never done this bit, because Carlin was himself an environmentalist! He hated how we mistreat this planet. I’m sure Carlin would have hated FANS like you.

  14. This guy rocks!! Rock on dude!! TREE HUGGERS SUCK AND SHOULD RIDE ******** BIKES AND GLOBAL WARMING IS A POLITICAL STUNT BULLSHIT, TO BAD HE DIDN’T TALK ABOUT THAT CROCK OF *****!!! WATCH IN ABOUT A YEAR IT IS GOING TO SHIFT TO “GLOBAL COOLING” AND A ******** ICE AGE!!!?? HOW MANY TREE HUGGING COWS ARE GOING TO JUMP TO THAT FENCE NOW??? LETS STAND UP AGINST THESE ******** IDIOT COWS THAT FOLLOW AL GORE, AND MICHALE MOORE?? LETS ALL RISE AND STAND UP AGINST THIS MINORITY AND PUT THEM IN THEIR PLACE!

  15. Exactly! Humans are temporary. If the planet’s history were condensed to 24 hours, humans would occupy the last two seconds. duh!
