Life Needs Death

Life is dependant upon death. The death of plants, animals, and all organic life-forms replenish the life giving nutrients of the earth. Without the cycle of life and death humanity, or any life, would be unsustainable. Food sources would not replenish themselves (plant, vegetative), and many species of life would be entirely deprived of food sources (carnivores, for example). Life as we know it depends upon death to be sustained.
