I woke up to the Rise of the Planet of the Apes.

I took my nap with the TV on (nothing much to watch) and I woke up with the cutest chimpanzee ever. So I more started to watch it and I learned a bit more about how mean human beings are. At the end the apes were free from their cages and in some woods. But I knew that they were outnumbered and would finally be defeated. It is a science fiction movie and maybe it is for kids. But I think about all the extermination of plants and animals we do every day, I think that the giant Amazon forest is less that 1/3 of what it was years ago and that native trees that take thousands of years to grow are turned into chips. We are a bad kind of beings. There are some of us who don´t harm the planet. I remember once reading a letter from an American Native chief to a white authority. I will have to watch something lighter now. This depressed me.

The way mankind has harmed our environment, causing pollution, erosion of soil and extinction of certain animals. It's the destruction of nature, to satisfy the 'love of money!'

I wholly agree. WE think that we are better than "animals" but we aren´t.

@marguicha And what makes me angry, wild animals are killed. Then, some organization rushes in, to stop the extinction of some species! Why were they killed in the first place?

Man has taken an abundant and lush planet and turned it into a dry desert.

At least you woke up to monkeys, I remember back in Latvia if I fell asleep and my husband could not sleep he would pop in a video, Often it was James Bond he loved those movies, So I would wake up to the sounds of shooting, bombs going off and such and often it would scare the heck out of me,

People can be incredibly greedy. And I agree, it is very depressing.

Not a cheerful way to start the day. I wish more and more people take this situation with seriousness, and if not the perpetrators are left to the wild animals unarmed so that they get their revenge.
