Fifth Life Lesson
Alex Dionisio
Hello, so I am speaking now in light of the recent Turkey/Syria earthquake
And there are officially confirmed dead around seventeen thousand people
With more to be confirmed dead probably soon in the coming days
And speaking now and generally in terms of natural disasters, what we call natural disasters
So I’m thinking why do we call them disasters?
Is it because it’s only humans that are affected and killed, only humans that are killed?
Or is it because it’s such a great loss of human life?
Would we call them disasters if there weren’t so many dead?
Is it not a disaster if humans are not involved, if humans do not die?
Maybe we should call it indirect terrorism because human activity on earth and to nature has an effect on this stuff
So we’re kinda the terrorists here
So basically this goes back to and is linked to climate change, extreme weather patterns
And it’s my belief that it is what humans are doing directly or indirectly to nature that’s causing this
These are symptoms of the earth to what we’re doing to it, the sickness that it has based on what humans are inflicting upon it
‘cause the earth is, it’s a natural living ecosystem
And because of our effect on it, the Anthropocene I believe is what they call it, there’s real devastating consequences now
And I think it’s all linked to or goes back to, it’s based on the animal agriculture ordeal, the food system and how we’re raising these animals when we shouldn’t
Our food system is based on animals, eating them and eating their products and it’s very costly, extremely costly on the environment, on the world
It hurts the world, very much so
So if the food system changes to a vegan one, it’s much softer and kinder, nicer to the environment, to the world
It won’t tick the world off so much, so these things wouldn’t happen so much, probably not at the scale that they are happening now
So it goes back to the vegan way
If we do that then these things won’t happen or they won’t happen as much and they won’t happen to the scale that they are happening
Might not be a perfect world but it would be a lot better than now
It wouldn’t be these catastrophic events where thousands of people are dying from the floods or the earthquakes or the cyclones, typhoons, hurricanes, whatever it is
So it’s indirectly human-induced
It’s as devastating and sad as a terrorist attack
Shouldn’t be pooh-poohed or brushed off as less than like a September 11th thing
Huge loss of life and I believe these things can be prevented
And like I said, again it goes back to going to a vegan food system, very nice on the environment, sends a message to the environment, calms the environment down, the world
So you wouldn’t get these disruptions, the imbalance of nature as I once said
Everything would be balanced and smooth, and the world wouldn’t be pissed off at us, and we wouldn’t get these things
That’s pretty much it, that’s everything I wanted to say
If we move to that sort of food system, the one hundred percent plant-based, the plant-exclusive food system, then we would get rewarded by the world, the earth, the natural global ecosystem as opposed to being tormented and punished by it because of our animal-based food system, with all these devastating happenings
So that’s all, have a good day, and bye
