The world seem perfect until the moment when man believed in himself a little bit more and thought he could conquer the world. The savage capitalism push the humanity to use every resource he finds to boost industries and economic growth in order to take the advance and leadership in the world. Man becomes blindly eager and hungry so he destroyed nature and its bio ecosystems where he lives to dominate his brothers the earth who seemed perfect becomes a total mess amid globalization Capitalism race and pollution.

Man ignored earth exist billions of years before him, ignored that earth has a complete system since it can auto adjust and balance according to circumstances.

Mother earth might be conscious because it reacts at the very perfect time. And while man aspires to control it and consider it as a tool to reach his individualist goals, earth took a break and lead him to question his position and his existence.
