FUTURE VISION

I used to watched news after work, news lately about calamities, crisis, war, food shortage , crimes and unstable economy these news numb my being. Imagine a mother's worry to her child when it grow up, what beauty would the children of this coming generation can witness. Will they be able go out and play without worrying their safety?. If trees and mountains were destroyed and oceans and lakes were contaminated, If air they are going to breath is still free and healthy? . I cannot imagine the world without nature, without fantastic views and mountains, oceans and birds chirping around the trees. If the new age is about technology, robotics, science.The world will be a big waste. 
  The sad thing I have in mind is that, Man is causing this destruction because of our greediness we are not able to weight the losses we could by abusing our nature. By altering and abusing God's creation for man. In the book of Genesis, there is a verse that talks about God giving man the dominion of all living and non living things created in Earth. But Man become corrupt. Now, were reaping and paying the price we did to mother Earth. Back to back earthquake, Tsunamis , Floods and storms. These fortuitous events are just a proof  how nature grieve because of our selfish motives.

I agree, Yen. For the sake of our children's future; human should treat the earth wiser...

There will always be natural calamities even without human intervention. Progress is humankind's destiny and using natural resources can not be avoided.

But that is not to say that it is ok to disregard mother nature. A pattern of resource use that aims to meet human needs while preserving the environment so that these needs can be met not only in the present, but also for future generations.

very true...only man is to blame!!!

one thing though, these things have been foretold in the bible. when the end is near famine, natural calamities and selfishness of man will be evident. kelan ka nakakita ng earthquake EVERYWHERE?! at talaga namang ang daming nagugutom. at napakasama na ng paligid. =(
