The "Gaia Hypothesis"

When we discussed the Gaia hypothesis, it was explained that it had an objective: the Earth is a system, super organism and can regulate its own internal state. Also, we discussed that its spiritual meaning was Greek and that it is a caretaker. I think that something that can seriously be thought about. I am not sure I agree with Lovelock and his hypothesis. If the Earth was self regulating, then it would not be dealing with global warming and all the problems that global warming is bringing. The polar bears would not be losing places to live and becoming extinct. It would also not have to deal with the threat of the three C's. Cars, cows and chainsaws are having a lasting impression on the Earth and if it was self regulating, then it would be able to fix itself after the destruction of these three things. I agree with Kohak when he says that the Gaia Hypothesis seems pointless, and agree with his flannel psychology.
