Unpredictability.

The position of mankind for me, is quite amazing. When you consider all types of creatures there are so many examples of individual superiority in eyesight, speed of movement, physical strength and innovation. Even giving up their life for the good of the species can set apart those who are an example of legendary status. Undoubtedly there are reasons for the hierarchy and arguably what enables mankind to dominate the animal kingdom.

Scientifically it has been predicted that the Earth is struck by debris and asteroids of varying sizes. There are environmental issues that influence the state of fluctuation in terms of unpredictability and pollution that can cause harm to the survival of many species. People can be the reason for positive and negative results, instigating scientific improvements that can greatly help the land that is lived on or activating actions that can harm it.

There is a seemingly constant threat of extreme actions, reactions and possible repercussions. Countries on an international scale have been relying heavily on political agendas or war strategy trying to counteract or negate certain actions. Neighbouring countries rather than mutually attempting to obtain success appear to be less and less inclined to combat issues together.

I would think that there is a great possibility in harnessing common aims and requirements, ensuring that basic needs are met and that at times of crisis a level of unpredictability should be minimised. There are so many countries that possess for example nuclear weapons and it could be said that instead of fear and competitiveness, advancements in technology, science and international diplomacy for human future success should rule the reasoning.

While the presence of various pandemics that have the potential to greatly reduce the populations across the world should be understood, it should not be forgotten that medical science has the potential to explore new and ever transforming remedies. Treatments can be found and breakthroughs noted that in time can enhance and help preserve life.

We have the wisdom to become supreme but have we got the drive to live peacefully together and create a safe haven for all life in the future? That is an interesting point to think on and hopefully for actions to prove possible.
