Agriculture civilized humans.
But now the civilization is being endangered and humanity is at great perils
We moved on from being a hunter gatherer society to the slash and burn and the settled farmers with community,
society, civilization and innovations.
Our innovations and progresses unfolded cornucopia of achievement. Achievements have empowered us to rein
high on the natural faces.
We have saved ourselves form the epidemics, catastrophes and calamities and we are able to better feed our
ever increasing and prospering family.
But our preoccupation with progress and prosperity has started To unsettle the settlements we had settled as the
farmers many centuries ago.
We have dammed rivers and exhausted ground water reservoirs To irrigate increasing area of cultivation and
farmlands.
And the nature has started to rein on us.
Our most rich and prosperous river basins and low lying bread baskets Feel the pain of flooding, water logging and
even droughts.
We need more food to feed more people And yet we may even loose the limited land!
So what we do?
We innovate yet again. We progress. And yes we prosper!
