Nature is to be with us not for us.
Animals are to be with us not for us.
High production and high consumption have been chanted as a mantra in the modern world driven by Western culture/civilization (with the industrial revolution, capitalism and colonisation, which has been exploiting/conquering nature and indigenous people all over the globe, and has been spreading like cancer cells by making so many humans addicted to it.
But alas, even the almighty Western civilization doesnt have the slightest chance to beat the challenges posed by sustainability. So, we now have to play a new game with new rules.
Sustainability is a relatively recent concept, but living within ones means is a centuries-old wisdom, and they are based on the same idea. So, how come the wisdom of the latter had not been observed in a bigger picture? A maxim says, A stitch in time saves nine. Now, the reality is more like, 9 stitches are needed to save 10.

Beautiful. But I think there is and should be time for sorrow. There's deep grief for a wondrous diverse world diminishing because of over-wealthy, mindless humans, and we need time for responding to these affects of sorrow while we also grow the plants of tomorrow

Yet still they made no connection to these things and human overpopulation because that meant they were directly responsible and not everyone else.

Animals live in trees as we live in houses. You wouldnt break down someones house, we shouldnt cut down as many trees as we do.

I wanted to try just closing my eyes while listening but the animation makes the narration more soothing to my mind and heart.
