Every year we cut down 7.3 million hectares of forests. Humanity does the same with other resources and the wealth of the earth. People are accustomed to taking nature as something they’re entitled to that has no voice or power. But we forget that it can fight back and that it always wins. And we are not talking about destructive elements or natural disasters.
Nature wins slowly, but even small victories are powerful. It doesn’t matter whether it’s an unexpected manifestation of life on the road or the absorption of a whole car. And we at Bright Side can’t help but admire this strength and natural ability to resist all of humanity.
