Inevitable annihilation

Most of our planet is made up of oceans. The rest that remains on the surface is enough space, at least for the moment, for us human beings to do our shit.
There is a lot of arable land from which a great deal of food can be obtained. It is possible that there is so much food that it could be sold very cheaply. In that way, hunger could very well disappear, but that is not a priority.

José Martí, the Cuban national hero, spoke more than 120 years ago about the infinite capacity of nature. He said that in each region of the world, the products of nature vary, and that this guaranteed exchange and wealth for everyone.
Of course, Martí’s thinking was, to a certain extent, utopian.

Far from achieving a balance with this inexhaustible source of wealth, we have exploited it so much that it seems as though it could be extinguished. But it will not be. Nature can change a great deal, but that change would only cause the extinction of the human race. Once that point is reached, nature will begin to destroy the concrete of the streets and everything will turn green again.

In times of COVID-19, the forced reduction in pollution greatly improved the state of the ozone layer; in other words, when our hands cannot interfere, nature keeps moving forward and heals itself.

All of this reminds me of Wall-E, the animated movie. There, humans on the ark-ship were obese and incapable of taking their eyes off the screen. We are very close to that happening. Obesity and diabetes are two of the most influential killers of our time. We have already talked about dependence on smart devices and the internet. All that is left is for everything to crumble further, or for a nuclear power to decide to attack its enemy… and for that enemy to strike back.

There is nothing to be done; the solution is not in our hands. Our destiny is in the hands of those at the top.
