Evolution & Ecosystems?

One of the most critical climate and habitat modeling and forecasting components is that nature requires millennia upon millennia for evolution to coordinate plant and animal evolution of a habitat like a rain forest. Yet real science tells us otherwise. An article in the Independent's Energy Bulletin tells us that an extremely complex rainforest has developed on Ascension Island in less than 150 years time.

The mid-Atlantic island is known to be the last stop for the Darwin carrying Beagle on it's way home. Darwin is said to have called it: "entirely destitute of plants and trees." Then the Royal Navy began spreading tree and plant species from several continents. Now Green Mountain, once called White Mountain, is a thriving tropical forest. Yet it grew from species collected randomly. Energy Bulletin says that "conventional theory suggests complex ecosystems only emerge through a slow evolution in which different organisms develop in tandem to fill particular niches. But Green Mountain suggests that natural rainforests and other ecosystems may be constructed more by chance than by evolution."

This turns evolution and natural climate change theory on its head. And what does this say about today's ecosystems and climate? It says that "global warming science" is just a thought. Not yet an idea but ions from being a theory. In fact many, if not most of the assumptions about ecosystems, evolution, and their relationship to climate are invalid when real observations on Ascension are given even limited weight.

What do climate and evolution specialists say: "Ascension doesn't count."
