A Secret and Progressive Destruction of the World

I guess we have seen in movies a lot villains trying to take over and control the world. Either they are aliens or some being with unique super powers that could fly and create massive destruction.

In real life, there is also this destruction of the world. It is not caused by any superalien or something but by "us", the people living within it. That would make us the villains, though some people do not yet find out that they are the villains. If we are the villains, then who are the super heroes? We still are.

Most people believe that we are facing an ecological crisis. Some animals had become endangered and some even had become extinct. Horrific statistics about the state of the earth worsens every year. Many people are aware of the situation and are worried over this. Most of the blame for the worsening situation are the different plantations that discharge harmful and toxic waste products which causes a permanent damage to nature either by air, land or water. Some people forget that even we,ourselves are big contributors to the ecological crisis. Most people aren't yet aware that even in the most ordinary thing they do, the whole ecological cycle is affected.

One chemistry teacher once shared to our class. "Imagine yourself throwing a plastic trash in the ocean, then an innocent fish swimming in the ocean becomes trapped inside. What if that was the last fish in world?" I know its kinda an exaggeration but its true. If we were to relate that situation in real life, that would be people throwing their trashes on the sea causing for it to die, including the fishes and organisms that live in it.

Aware of it or not, each of us are contributors to the ecological crisis, even though how innocent-looking we may be. We may be just doing just simple things but we must also bear in mind that each individual is a part of the large puzzle.

We must be terrified with all the news and statistics we hear and see but we must also remember that no superhuman would show up and clean all the mess that we have made. It's really hard to rejuvenate the world in which the inhabitants themselves are the destroyers.
