New world!

        At the end of the day, what matters is if we are giving back an ecosystem that our children are proud of? In simple terms, can the air they breathe, water they drink, food they eat be of good quality as we do now?  In our pursuit to compete and outsmart one another, we are destroying the natural resources that are available to us. At this trend, what will our next generation have? Hope you don't want them to rehabilitate to Mars or find another galaxy like milky way in another universe.

        What can we do to avoid this? At the corporate level, can we imbibe the values to conserve and protect our depleting natural resources? Should we follow the Bhutan way of carbon-free country? If so, our understanding of economical progress will be wrong. GDP or GNP will not an appropriate index to measure economic progress instead we need to look for Gross National Happiness Index(GNH). As simple as our quality of sleep, physical vigor, the simplicity of living should value more than materialistic pleasures that we are after. If economic progress is driven by GNH index, I think we should go back to the way our ancestors used to live rather than look for robots.  It could be the only possible way to leave a legacy for our future generations to come. At least if you want them to breathe good air and drink pure water.
        Hope there is no alien out there in some universe who is looking at our garbage dump and laughing at our ignorance. We are destroying our own world and looking for new ventures across the universe for rehabilitation. Aren't we premature enough?
