We really need to understand how we are stripping our earth of its natural resources.
             "Looks can be deceiving...." is very true. Our advancing technology is, at first look, miraculous. People are living longer healthier lives. People who would have died ordinarily now can be artificially sustained, antibiotics can now kill bacteria that might have ordinarily killed someone. But at a closer look these 'miracle' technologies can have a huge impact on the world. The world's population is increasing at an alarming rate. Can Mother Earth supply us with all the things that we demand of her? Nature had a flawless system of natural selection, only the strong survive, but emotional attachment has prompted us to find cures or prevention of diseases in an effort to save loved ones. Where do we draw the line? Are we abusing the system? Are we getting too smart for our own good? Will technology eventually overtake us?
