The biosphere in the other hand--that part of life which is not our habitat--includes ocean-floor volcanic spouts, stratospheric realms of bacteria, and stretches of polar ice. To call that "the" environment is to postulate a home without a common inhabitant, as John indicates. It's an environment for some kinds of life, but not us.


No, you're speaking about Des Moines; that for me would not be any kind of habitat. I'd take Novaya Zemlya over that any day, even when it's 24 hours long.
