Industry to most is a necessary evil. We need it, we thrive on the competition and we live off the rewards. However it has a dark side, many say it destroys our society and the environment; but when you take a few steps back and look at these dark demons we have created, can we not see the beauty. The human Ingenuity. We did this, and while we may have done it without thinking about certain consequences, we did it ourselves.

Along the way we used nature to aid us and we molded it to suit us.

Even in the junk we collect and sell there is a sense of beauty. We are our own nature.

But that’s not to say we don’t need the real thing. The eviroment we modeled to many of our technological models after is dying. We have aided in that. Do you’re part. Recycle. Donate. Anything you think you can do. Pick up some trash, anything. What will the artist paint when the muse is gone? Or worse, when the entire canvas and paint is gone.
