Exactly. Humanity has done an astonishing job of insulating itself from the forces of nature that thin all the other herds. The unfortunate byproduct of such an easy existence is the proliferation of that which previously wouldn't have made it. This is how we end up with people that consciously chose to live in a climate that goes below freezing part of the year yet they warm up their SUVs 30 minutes before leaving the indoors ecosystems.
