The Devestation Of Advancement

Is it not odd that when loking back at history, you notice that the most powerful civilizations have taken a good long while to reach its peak of power and from there slowly die out, and from those civilizations came advancements just likee everyone before it. Now look back at history and look at the USA. Its been here for 235 years give or take a few years, and look how far we have come. then we had basics, and things seemed to be advancing in a propper time, then you have guns that get more powerful, then more accurtate, then faster firing time. Weapons go from simple to mass destructive. There are computers doing things for us. Everything is operated on computers. Hell even the people have seemed to advance.

Now look at how the world around us has changed. Polution is every where, our ozone is so bad off its is un-believeable. Our world is slowly starting to lose it resources. And everything is becoming exaclty what it was not before the 1600’s(example). Before that, our air was still clean, our lives are not in danger because of bad air. The seasons and climate were actually balanced.

It seems to me that since the USA has started out as a country, it has been given every chance that empires before us did not have. At that momment the creation of the USA was so lucky it was amazing. And instead of using it to our advantage, it was wasted. The thought of becoming the most powerful country clouded the eyes of the leaders, who had all these good intentions, and yet they all seem to back fire. Better energy souces, yet it destories our ecosystem. We make weapons to protect ourselves but now we can kill everything on earth.

All of these advances and instead of helping us they only make it worst in the future. At the time it semmed like a geat idea, but nver did they think of the  consequences. Now we have to. We as a generation that has to see the affects of their mistakes. Knowing that these things will, at some point in time, destroy us.

It is amazing that the most powerful civilization to be created is the most nieve and in return will have to pay for  the things they never considered.

And not only has our mistakes damned us but the living things around us, the world around us. Thesre are habitats around the world being destroyed everyday. Our negative affects on the ozone and the natural world has made global warming such a threat it is merley years away.

All this on a counrty that was blessed, yet at the same time it is teribbly cursed, and for both it will pay, and so will the rest of the world
