I would describe myself as a somewhat optimistic person. Sometimes, I complain about this and that, but I am constantly aware that it is my humble opinion. However, the relationship between us and nature has always made me go on a slightly pessimistic path. So powerfully, we humans symbolize the peek of evolution; it shows that we are not intelligent enough to make wise decisions about significant issues leading toward our future. We have only a limited capacity to take the past as thoughtful guidance to avoid and repeat mistakes made by our ancestors. We are not capable of thinking slightly further than our own lives. I wish there would be moral conciseness telling us how to make our interaction with our surroundings successful. Now, more than ever, we realize that we already made many mistakes and that we already crossed many thresholds to continue a healthy relationship with nature. Here we go. I am a big fan of human achievement, and I am also sad about our incapacity to think in a bigger context and learn from our past. In that way, I do not trust us as a species to succeed in the future.
