Plants being the Primary Consumers and ultimately the Primary Producers led to the next generation of consumers.

²⁰ And God said, “Let the water teem with living creatures, and let birds fly above the earth across the vault of the sky.” ²¹ So God created the great creatures of the sea and every living thing with which the water teems and that moves about in it, according to their kinds, and every winged bird according to its kind. And God saw that it was good. ²² God blessed them and said, “Be fruitful and increase in number and fill the water in the seas, and let the birds increase on the earth.” ²³ And there was evening, and there was morning—the fifth day.

The Carry Capacity of Earth has to include the consumers of Earth. From this understanding now begins a negative effect on Earth's 100% capacity. We have witnessed Earth's maximum. At the Primary Consumer and bi-product of Primary Producers it has been consumption of elemental Earth. Elemental Earth is the aspect of Earth that is finite. The land, the water and the air. Elemental Earth is a constant. It is the 100% without consumption that intends on viability. It is the Earth that will always exist. Short of the sun's nova, there isn't anything that consumes that capacity. It is constant. It may change form, but, it is constant.

It is from here there is energy consumed by the biotic content of Earth. The plants consume the elements of Earth to produce life. Plants have no conscience and don't seek to serve any consumers, but, the opportunity of their by-products allows the opportunity to the negative side of Earth's Carrying Capacity. It is now here there is consumption that can lead to unreasonable demand. Can Earth's by-product producers keep up with demand? 

Are all forms of life important? Do we not live on Earth with the understanding life itself is important. Do scientists not look to conservation to protect that which is important in our natural world? Is their work not important? Do they not sound the warning of OVER CONSUMPTION?
