Some 35,000 odd years ago came a new species of animal. No ordinary animal though. It could invent, discover, wonder. It out thought its competitors and in time became the predominant species on this planet. On its way it made changes to earth that no other of its off-spring had even imagined. Most of which eventually killed some of the other species.
The 3rd rock from sun has been so changed ,mostly in a negative way, over the many centuries that it seems unlikely to return to its beauty again any time in the near future.
But to blame the modern world for it is absolutely wrong. Didn't the early humans' arrival end with extinction of a number of plant and animal species wherever it set foot such as the mammoth, saber tooths, kiwis and many more? Industrialization is something more like the end of a very dirty sentence that began many centuries ago and which most probably ends in an even dirtier fashion ( maybe a middle finger to our face ).
No other animal, and thats what we are, has been so disharmonious with the natural world as we humans have been all through our history.
And by law of natural selection we may have reached our zenith and now its the rough tumble down a steep slope to reach the pit of our extinction. Nothing will prevent it from fruition for nothing can change the mind of a human. We will continue with our ways and nature will takes its own course. Only hope is that we don't do too much damage before we bid farewell to this blue green piece of rock..... Goodbye!!!
