This Image illustrates that the power to destroy or save the world lies in the hands of the human race.
Throughout the years, we as a species, have done more damage to our plant than any other creature on
the planet. Yet the power to stop and even reverse the damage is also with our capabilities. We saw
during the Covid-19 pandemic that planet, essentially, started to heal. The Chicago River started to clear
up, dolphins returned to areas of the Mediterranean Sea where they previously hadn’t been seen in
decades. Even the air quality in major cities improved. All this happened because human life came to a
halt and our impact on the world ceased for a short time. If we can apply what we learned during this
period, we can begin to undue the sever damage we have caused and make this planet a much more
habitable home for us and future generations. Its all in our hands.
