Two sides of the same coin. I think its something which we probably don't yet know enough about so proceeding with caution makes sense.
I watched Fight for the wild last night & it clearly shows how much damage some predators we imported before we knew better have done, with some species becoming extinct. Only recently did we start to realise the damage done & set about trying to save those species in danger of extinction.
It can take quite a while before we know everything we need to about the possible effects something might have on our environment & ourselves.
in order to be old & wise, you must first be young & stupid. (I'm still working on that.)
