It was Margulis and chemist James Lovelock who came up with the 'Gaia' hypothesis - that the earth is alive. The idea is that there is a bio-feedback loop between the animals and the atmosphere, which there is of course, and it maintains and is maintained by the organisms that live on the planet. Then again I suppose we can also poison ourselves.
Thank you!
