Invasive species can have severe impacts in the ecosystems they enter. When highly invasive species are getting into relatively unaltered ecosystems, they simplify that ecosystem. This is what Homo sapiens has been doing on a global scale extremely fast and at global scale. Moreover, humans have brought along many other invasive species. Humans aim to manage all other invasive species, except Homo sapiens itself. Here we are focused on managing all invasive species, including Homo sapiens. We deliberate on strategies to manage invasive species, including the most invasive one (Homo sapiens), ensure monitoring of invasive species through citizen science, and develop road maps and action plans to tackle issues associate with invasive species.

[Feb. 24, 2026] New Scenario for 2028 Points to an AI-related Highly Undesirable Future for Economy: Aisha Down and Dan Milmo discuss in their article‘A feedback loop with no brake’: how an AI doomsday report shook US markets” the scenario studyTHE 2028 GLOBAL INTELLIGENCE CRISIS A Thought Exercise in Financial History, from the Future” by Citrini and Alap Shah posted on February 22, 2026 on Substack. This study points out that the financial system of today was optimized over decades for a world of scarce human minds. AI changed this: “This is the first time in history the most productive asset in the economy has produced fewer, not more, jobs. Nobody’s framework fits, because none were designed for a world where the scarce input became abundant. So we have to make new frameworks. Whether we build them in time is the only question that matters.” The authors point out that the economy could find a new equilibrium, and “getting to this new equilibrium is one of the few tasks left that only humans can do. We need to do it correctly.”

[Feb. 12, 2026] Are we already at or close to a Point of no Return?: Damian Carrington raises this question in his article in the Guardian titled “Point of no return: a hellish ‘hothouse Earth’ getting closer, scientists say.” The most recent paper by Ripple et al. assesses “The risk of a hothouse Earth trajectory,” and the author's conclusions are pointing to an increasing probability of Earth moving into a hothouse state. The assessment should be an alarm bell for all of us. Continuing on the current path of our economy and society comes with the high risk of mass extinction, and the current uncertainty could soon turn into certainty.
