My good puzzle pieces: The environmental effects of knowledge

Everything is related to everything. We are all the result of a never ending thread of cause and effects. As we evolve and progress, the choices we make add up to define our path. As an individual this decision making can be the make or break of our personal future. As a specie our actions have an exponential impact on our surroundings, making our choices either long term sustainable or not. We can only make wise choices by knowing the effects that our past has had on the environment and making corrections to diminish negative impacts while exploring and developing new avenues that make our progress sustainable. Hence the important role that knowledge plays in our future and the difference between our story being one of survival or annihilation.
