Who Are We?

Is it just me or are we all idiots as human beings. I mean look around, the amount of life that the freeway real estate could hold is ridiculous. Instead, it holds our cars which spew toxic gasses, killing any animal that breathes. The County of Los Angeles alone covers 4079 square miles. Fighting against this issue is way above all of our petty issues, above going to work in the morning, above my own life, and above everyone else's. It is above all of the wishes of the human race.
This is ridiculous, we need to do something. Our culture needs a complete over haul. Our population is ridiculously over the max population for earth to sustain itself. Not to be blunt but if we don't do something, either we're all going to have to die, the earth is, or all is lost.
If anybody has any ideas please share, because the more I look around, I see that we have killed our mother nature, Is hope lost?
As long as we care, we are not lost, but caring requires thought. We cannot be absent minded. Not even for an instant.

Join me. In thought and action.

I find that the society of the Navi is desirable because everybody has a clear porpoise in life, they have a commitment to nature and to each other. they don't have lawyers and accountants and venture capitalists. they all take what they need and nothing more.
As you leave the comfy confines of your house, look around you. Do you see luscious forest and greenery. If so, you are lucky, if it is hundreds upon hundreds of houses leaving nature no place to take its last gasp than you are like many people on our becoming gray earth for me this thought is inescapable. Every day I feel trapped by this imbalance between nature and human spread.
The more aware of these things we are everyday the more likely we are to save our earth as a whole people.
After I saw avatar I realized that the whole time I was longing subconsciously to be apart of a different species. As weird as this sounds I think i'm tired of the human race. we destroy our planet. our perceptions of things that aren't human related are little. we get angry when another human gives us a funny look but animal and plant life being destroyed is hardly a worry to most of us. we should stop worrying what other people think of us and start caring what nature thinks of us. we've already bulldozed our own sacred tree. WHY!!!

One thing I envy about the villagers in avatar is the community. everybody comes together in ritual. they have respect. the respect and care with these people is everywhere. They respect nature and each other and they care for nature and each other. A society that is careless is unattractive, as are people. a person who litters is unattractive in the same way as a culture who litters all over their streets is considered unattractive.
I also find that the feeling of not being the most dangerous thing out there holds the community close and away from conflict. throughout history it has been shown that a greater threat brings peace to a community. But the magic in this community is that they don't fear the dangerous animals, they respect them. In this way they're not at war with each other they are at their respectful distances. the native society in Avatar is almost a utopian society.
