The “Modern World”

“As long as humans don’t realize their own nature, new technologies won’t solve any real issues.”

In the last two centuries, the modern world has given rise to modern civilization: globalization, overconsumption, a world that seems boundless and infinite—a reflection of the most powerful country in the world.

But when we understand that the resources which created this world are limited, while also being a threat and harmful to the planet, we also realize that the current idea of “welfare” is merely a delusion.

The sad reality is that most humans simply don’t know, and continue to live their lives doing their best, unaware of what is truly happening just beyond their door.

However, this is not the end.

More and more people are becoming conscious of their actions—that they carry weight in this world, that their behavior actually impacts the planet that will be left to future generations.

The future is now. The future is you.
