Culture IS what we do to channel those instincts. The current paradigm favours devouring the environment that sustains us. \n\nNone of the species you mentioned, or any other species that we know, not even parasites, consume to the point where not just the host but the host’s environment, too, collapses. Only viruses do that, and even that is debatable. \n\nIt is up to us to change our culture into one that is connected with the world sustaining life—and us—or go extinct."}
