That making nature convenient for us (managed forests, etc.) is not the same as being nature friendly.

We’re standing on an unthinkably thin layer of viable grime coating a very small rock. We should all be constantly aware of how delicate this situation is and act accordingly, both in terms of how we treat each other and the shit we do to the rock.
Seconded. If the Earth were the size of a globe on your desk, he entire biosphere would be thinner than a piece of paper. We have filled the whole thing with our waste and toxins and we are destroying the very systems that we rely on to produce our food and air. If we do not start paying attention and taking steps, I sincerely believe that there will be a society ending global crisis in the next 2-3 decades.

People rarely notice anything above their eyeline. It has to be directly in front of them or slightly down to be noticed.
Look UP people! There's a whole other world there.

That while they judge themselves by their best intentions, they invariably, and subconsciously judge others by their actions.
Once you realise most people are just trying to get through the day and most people aren't trying to make things worse for others, it's easier to forgive perceived slights, and that will make your own day better, and make you less likely to subconsciously slight someone else.

That they are blocking the door on public transport.
Or those who want to get in without letting people getting off first.....

I wish people would realize how their bad behavior, how their greed, hurts other people.
the thing is, they DO realize it. what a lot of people don't realize is that people like that literally enjoy causing suffering in others. especially "other" others. telling these people that they're hurting you doesn't make them feel bad, it makes them feel GOOD
why? cycle of abuse? brainwashing? lack of education? most likely, all the above.

How they are being manipulated by so many things; advertisements, the media, influencers, social media posts, the entertainment industry. The biases aren't all bad but they definitely exist.

Cars.
They are everywhere, they take for themselves the majority of public space in urban areas and they are incredibly dangerous, noisy, expensive.

That they're never going to watch the video they're taking on their cell phone at a sporting event, or concert, or political event, or whatever.
And just live in the moment instead.

Apparently thats because we dont have any natural predators in the air (or at least didnt when we had to worry about that.)
I wonder if drone warfare is going to change that up for us over the generations?

Perfect representation, a classic, thanks

Just a few hours ago I was almost run over by a person who was smoking while driving, thus distracted.
Just because they couldn't wait 5 minutes to smoke another cancer stick they almost kill a person and spend the rest of their good years in jail.
