The Looming Catastrophe that Awaits us if We Fail to Rethink our Values

What does the term “values” mean? Values are, simply put, the fundamental beliefs, principles, and ideals that guide our decisions. They shape our worldviews, and define the core of who we are, as individuals and as a society too. These values are not static; they evolve over time. They are influenced by cultural, historical, and social factors. At the heart of our values, lies our … Continue reading The Looming Catastrophe that Awaits us if We Fail to Rethink our Values

The Human Face Of Climate Change

In the small village of Chimanimani: the Eastern Highlands of Zimbabwe, I once beheld a scene of unspeakable devastation. A monster, disguised as a cyclone, had ravaged the land, leaving destruction and despair in its wake. The once peaceful community was now a scene of utter ruin. Homes were reduced to rubble, trees uprooted, and lives shattered. It was the first time in a long … Continue reading The Human Face Of Climate Change

Progress is The Amazon’s biggest Foe

Deep in the lush, green heart of the Amazon, there’s a quiet battle raging. It’s a place where the thick greenery paints a living masterpiece, but beneath the surface, trouble is brewing. This corner of the world still holds onto the secrets of ancient times, but now, it’s under attack by what some call “progress,” leaving deep wounds in the earth. The real price of this progress is written in the lives of the local tribes, the true keepers of the forest, who see their sacred land being torn apart to serve needs of distant lands.

The American way, s#cks.

I loved Holidays when I was a kid, but these days I just can’t stand the relentless materialism. The obnoxious ads that equate money spent on consumer goods with “love” make me sick to my stomach. I’m not giving you the Puritan rant about plastic Santas and American kids who gobble sugary junk and have too many toys. I’m not against pleasure. But somehow they … Continue reading The American way, s#cks.

Global Warming is going to submerge the planet

Global warming’s going to submerge the planet? I don’t think so. Not that I don’t believe in Global Warming. I do. Ocean levels are rising, you can see it. But submergence doesn’t happen overnight. A natural cycle, of deserts and melting pole caps, is followed by another cyclic Age of Ice. Maybe we are destroying the planet: we’ll get what we deserve. But either way, … Continue reading Global Warming is going to submerge the planet
