Matt, two things
The ingenuity we keep coming up with is but a Band-Aid.
You build a dam, it gets filled with silt.
You use drip irrigation in a desert area, salt form on the surface after
30 years.
You use antibiotics, bacteria form resistance to the drug.
Yes we have done some wonderful things like Polio vaccine and the like.
Things have been fine tuning themselves for millions of years. The
solutions we find tend to create more problems.
The reason we have more cancer rates than before. Well our bodies were
made to go 50 years tops. Any thing after that is a bonus.
Then you have the Gaya theory that says earth is an organism that will do
what is best for its survival.
We have been seeing that with the flu season. Each year gets meaner and
meaner.
