Aeroplanes, Cars, Bikes, Trains....all are getting faster and faster....covering greater distances in shorter times. Communication is getting faster....internet....mobile devices...television....news travels faster.....nations want to grow faster...more production...more revenues...individuals want to grow faster..career...money...."faster"....is the modern day mantra driving humanity and all its goals!
Thoughts are getting faster....quicker decisions...quicker....solutions....faster technology....faster production....
As a result faster global warming...animals...plants....birds and fishes also getting extinct faster! Glaciers melting down faster...rivers drying up faster...forest fires spreading faster...
Well now if mankind wants things to happen faster, why are we surprised if nature is cooperating!!!!
Humanity wants to cover more and more in the short life span....with everything happening faster...somewhere life too is getting shorter.....while statistics claim that life expectancy is increasing....we all feel the pressure that life is passing by too soon and time is passing by too fast.
Any guess why we are living on the edge? Driving ourselves towards extinction....
