First proposed by scientists James Lovelock and Lynn Margulis in the 1970s, the Gaia Hypothesis proposes that living things on Earth interact with their inorganic surroundings to maintain optimum conditions for life, through a series of self-regulating feedback loops. These conditions include such things as ocean salinity, atmospheric oxygen, and global surface temperature.
