something to think about
After reading the article on "Collapse" it really made me start to think about how we as humans are protecting the earth and it's recourses. I mean come on lets face it, at the rate that we are using our planets recourses, they are not going to be around forever. The article really made me start to think about the things that our societies consume, from food and oil, all the way to just our surrounding environments. I mean let's really start to take a look at our planets natural recourses, they are being depleted at a very rapid paste and if we keep this up then we are going to be left with nothing. For example the fish that we eat and use for our protein, it's really starting to scare me because me being from Hawaii, I grew up with fish, and it is a really big part of my diet. If the world's fish population were to vanish, then I don't know how I would be able to stand it. Even the aquacultures that we are trying to control are also starting to work against us because we are still trying to control the balance of nature. We are taking these creatures out of their natural habitats and making them live and eat how and what we want them to do. It's not a very good way to try and stop the decline of these populations, just for our selfish greed, we need to realize that many things that we do are starting to affect the flow of our planet. Not only are we killing the population of the animals that we consume, but we are also killing their habitat and natural habitats. As people, we have to realize this and start to do something about it, we are being way to greedy and this has to stop. At the rate that we are terrorizing everything, it is just so shocking that we can continue to do this as we have even been starting to see the results of our actions. I really don't hope that one day earth just comes back to get us, and all of the things that we have so much greed for and don't care about vanishes.
