    Hello everyone,

    Since we know that organisms influence their environments, and therefore both randomness and presence can exert selective pressure on a population, do our choices influence evolutionary fitness?

    And if so, what if any are the ethical considerations towards making choices and thinking in such a way that exerts positive or nominal selective pressure?
