“Human beings are a disease, a cancer of this planet, you are a plague…” says Agent Smith, in The Matrix. I have no idea how any human being can defend this accusation. I have often wondered, humans are actually “raping” the earth. There is no doubt about that I may not know that actual figures but I’m pretty sure the damage caused by humans to the earth has increased multi fold since the dawn of the “industrial-age”. I’m no exception myself; oblivious to these thoughts of mine I continue to join my fellow rapists in plundering natural resources .
Eric Pianka, a Professor at the University of Texas, said that the Earth could be saved if 90% of the human population is terminated. That is a large number and my survival instinct says that I should be in the 10%, but there a part of me that is willing to …, no no I can’t do it.
Any case, please visit GreenPeace and find out for yourself how much damage has been done. I hope we aren’t too late.
