The Party is Ongoing

Nature can get very red in tooth and claw and just as likely to impose a famine as a feast

What is the old saying? Give a man a fish and he dines for a night, teach a man to fish and he dines every night.

God created all the nature around us, I believe it is God who gets angry whenever any of his creation is destroyed.

I bet the only way for the remote islands to get attention to bring the cruise ships there. Not many cruise ships will stop in all the islands, and the islanders still have to build infrastructure to deal with 5000 or so passengers.

This reminds me similar stories of the south of Italy during WWII. Then the flying dragons came back home and they are still looking at the sky.

War can be devastating but also free people from isolation too. Hopefully it is progress although sometimes it is bad progress, Too much tourism changes places out of all recognition and not always for the good. 30 years ago Mauritius had a few hotels and was beautiful. Now there are literally hundreds of hotels all around the coast which have changed it beyond recognition.

Nature has taken over and has started becoming erratic and doing what it pleases regardless of what effect it has on us.

I've seen how mother nature takes its revenge. Take for example in some part of our country there is massive denudation of forest. Now this part of our country is suffering from severe drought as a result of the el nino. Mother natures wrath in major force and man cannot hide from it. Mother nature is not always kind and forgiving it is also a punisher.

What we do to damage mother nature always comes back in a stronger force , devastating our properties more than what the people did for mother nature . So, we should do what we can to take care of mother nature , not destroy it .

If we continue to misuse it a day will come when its anger will be truely manifested and we might be too late o reverse

It's hard to accept when the good times come to an end. We do hope they will return.

Sigh. Good times won't last. We have to experience the bad ones to keep the balance

“Nature nurtures us like a loving mother and that is why the grateful refer to it as Mother Nature.” If we feel so nurtured, perhaps it is good, but Mother Nature is no mother. Nature is just what it is. It sometimes seems to work for our benefit, at other times against us. It just follows its own laws. Its laws means that it never seeks revenge. A law is not vengeful, it is just the way things work. Nature does nothing extra to accommodate for us then. It is forever just itself, of which we are just another part of it too. It never needs to rebalance itself, because it has never lost any balance. All of this is only our own picturing of things. Nature is just forever nature. We can though learn to perhaps play it nature’s way, instead of trying to manipulate and work against it. Does nature have emotions, and get angry too, as we do? No, I do not think so. Nature works for God, and not God for nature. This simply means that God's set up nature to work along certain laws and ways of behaving, and so it is up to us to discover these laws, and if we move ourselves across nature through loving it, not despising it by trying to extract prizes from it, we might then know its laws, and only when we know its laws, can we rise above nature to reach even, as God is, and so then we might walk on water as Jesus Christ did, and this is confirmed by him saying that we can do even greater things that which he did himself, whilst he was here. “Very truly I tell you, whoever believes in me will do the works I have been doing, and they will do even greater things than these, because I am going to the Father.” This verse comes from Saint John's gospel, chapter 14, verse 12.

Yes, what you fear is true. Nature has had enough. Now we are going to face rising coast line levels and polluted air everywhere.

I can never understand and cannot tolerate the defiance of mankind to ever place mother nature to the challenge with exploiting space programs, nuclear bomb testings, mineral mining and oil rigging, I would not know how tsunamis, sink holes, ozone depletion came about but I can say with a certain degree that they are happening ever more frequently with much more catastrophic devastation each time. More than less, man today is digging a bigger grave in the name of experimentation, but no one including the greedy governments of the countries involved are stopping these exploitation.

Exactly my thoughts, I will come back and read more of it

Mother Nature knows best..

The arrival of those troops were two fold I would say..clearing out vital trees and sort of desecration of the both the land and the peoples forever changed. It is sad friend. Yes, I believe it is inevitable and logical...we cannot keep abusing nature for us..it will eventually come back to us. Man cannot defy nature.

Mother Nature is not liking the way that we are treating her world.

I do find that we are slowly killing nature...who knows how long it will last :(
