Humans Versus Nature; Who Wins?

Everyone always seems to think that humans are stealing the world%26#039;s natural resources and ruining the environment.





But on the other hand, natural diasters seem to put humanity in its place.





So who%26#039;s winning?
Humans Versus Nature; Who Wins?
Well, think of it this way;


There have been unnatural events happening lately across the world over the past few years, such as floods, droughts, hurricanes, tornados, typhoons, and haven%26#039;t they all been happening because we%26#039;re ruining the environment? I%26#039;d say we%26#039;re making the earth act so much more violently against us. In a sense, we%26#039;re winning, but it in the end we all know nature will win.

Humans are part of Nature. We can only win what Nature allow us to win.
Reply:Depends on what you mean by winning.





Ultimately nature will become so far out of balance that humanity, and possibly everything else living on the planet is destroyed...or at least greatly diminished...whether there will be a liveable planet after that remains to be seen.
Reply:Nature has always been present on Earth and always will be. Humans have existed on this planet for a relatively early period of time, so no matter what we do or do not do, nature will continue to %26#039;react%26#039; .. I guess you could say .. to what%26#039;s going on around the planet. This doesn%26#039;t necessarily mean what humans are doing but anything .. for example if an asteroid hits the Earth what%26#039;s going to happen?





At this point in time, humans are using and abusing the nature%26#039;s resources, and nature is reacting to what we%26#039;re doing. So I wouldn%26#039;t stay it%26#039;s putting %26#039;humanity in its place%26#039; but rather, we%26#039;re facing the consequences and realizing what we%26#039;re doing to the planet is wrong and not helping it.





So really, I don%26#039;t think anyone is %26#039;winning%26#039; per se. Humans and nature are both getting hurt but at the same time we%26#039;re still benefiting from this world.
