Well, it just makes sense. The people who blame climate change for everything also use it as an excuse for everything: massive redistribution of wealth, wrecking markets and encroaching on human liberty. Oh, and now they’re bringing long extinct animals back from the dead.
According to Popular Mechanics and Medium, a Texas-based biotech company named Colossal says it will create a wooly mammoth by 2027. Basically, it’s merging ancient mammoth DNA with that of Asian elephants to create what it calls “a cold-resistant elephant.”
“Unholy abomination,” might be another name for it. Or maybe “Hubrisaurus.” But I’m sure everything will be fine.
Colossal wants to reintroduce its unfrozen pachyderm into Siberia to (wait for it!) fight climate change. According to Medium:
When mammoths once roamed the vast tundras of the arctic, they would graze on different plants and trees of the grassland. As they were roaming, they would also help to disrupt the snowpack, allowing the plants to grow.
Since their extinction, there hasn’t been anything to disrupt the ice-pack, and plants lost their ability to survive. A once flourishing ecosystem of grasslands that could absorb the carbon had been lost. But, with the reintroduction of the Wooly Mammoth; they could bring back the balance to the arctic grasslands by allowing the growth of these plants, and restoring a surface of snow that reflects the sun’s radiation.
So the arctic has been damaged for the 10,000 years since mammoths went extinct? And by introducing giant pre-historic/post-modern monsters up there, will simultaneously disrupt the ice-pack and “restore a surface of snow?” That’s some versatile animal.
Look, you want to play God and reintroduce species that haven’t been around for 10 millennia because you can, well, good luck. But don’t tell me you’re doing it in the service of the climate cult.
