Now nasa is exploding moon’s surface to confirm presence of water. What a tremendous achievement! About 50 years ago no one would have imagined in wildest dreams even to reach moon. And now, science has reached moon and tracing possibility of life there. Yes, life. We might get to live on moon within a century or so. Imagine life on moon, amazing isn't it?
Why not, after raping earth its time to move on.
Indeed there is a need to move on. Alarming rate of global warming and its concomitant effects have brought us in a perilous situation. Melting glaciers, rising sea levels have brought fears of soaring sea level submerging coastal areas in few decades. These reckless developments have come at cost of environment which sustains our life. Now when the man’s greed has pushed it to its limits, there is indeed a prudence in abandoning the earth. After all who would want to live in polluted world!
But why have we reached in these conditions. Who is to blame? These third world nations with their surging populations have exerted too much stress on resources. Their desire to develop and provide quality services to their people has deteriorated environment. How could everyone get same facility? They are consuming more, they demand oil more, they are acquiring vehicles etc. the emission their industries produce have polluted the environment and there is need to curb their emission. Is it?
All these capitalist and so called developed nations should be held culpable. What kind of double standard is this? After bringing world in position it is now, they are pointing it to emissions of developing countries. They always blame it to their Frankensteins. Who is responsible behind rising food prices? Aren’t they who use 70% of food grains produced in country to feed cow and pig for producing meat. According to research, a cow takes 16 kg of food grains to produce One k.g. of beef. Why don’t they work to increase productivity of cow!
An average American eats 125 kg of meat every year and all Americans consume 35,000,000 tonnes of meat every year. America is not alone there are countries whose staple diet is meat not grain. As a result there is acute shortage of food grains. What an irony, animals are getting food but not men who produce them! Also there are some pointings to America deploying its fields to produce ethanol-a fule substitute, rather than grains. Who is going to toll them?
Capitalism thrives on human greed. If you donot wish then how would this market run? Thoda aur wish karo, right mr. khan, but you hardly know what you are talking about! All the world is a market and players are consumers.Wish is infused and it is acted upon market forces to make it a need.If every wish becomes a need and people just start running after these artificially created demands, then where would this stop? Where does this conspicuous consumption leads us?
Well we have arrived .It is the final destination of journey started with Industrial Revolution. That was a water shed movement in history of civilization. But the greed generated by it has culminates here. It has reduced humans into haves and have-nots. Haves have more than they require and have-nots hardly have something to feed themselves. And there is certain amount of elitism attached with haves group.other group just exists for them to exploit.
Now instead of checking their reckless behavior they are shifting to other places. after ravishing large parts of Asia and nearly whole of Africa, capitalist forces are on hunt again. I am amused to think about people who consider moon as god. They failed to protect their earth godess they cant do anything when moon would open up its resources to man’s greed. What is the bloody use of your religion and your gods?Take yamuna, a goddess daughter of sun, is dumped with industrial wastes and it is no more than a ganda naala. Fie! Only time you remember when you go to dump those idols. Even then no shame. If that’s how you treat your gods then its no wonder humanity has become extinct.
Go on. Go on with your liberty. There is no one you fear. God was killed centuries ago. There is no law for you, for you make laws. what was it? 'survival of the fittest' isn't it? Yes sir, the ones who eliminate are the ones who have contributed to your survival!
