STOP DRY.
At some point nature was something sacred to humanity, and for that reason it was admired, feared, respected. But that communion was broken. Man became arrogant, considered himself the center of the universe and judged that nature was his, that it was there for his domination and exploitation. In this essay, William Ospina reflects on this process and traces its traces in religions, art, philosophy, science, history, literature, and reaches the dramatic conclusion that a stop along the way is urgent, because what is at stake is the survival of the planet and the human race.
