Borrowing from Future

“We do not inherit the earth from our ancestors, we borrow it from our children.”



When we borrow money we pay it back with interest, when we borrow a car we fill it with gas, and when we borrow our friends clothes we clean them before we return them. However when we borrow the future from our children we look to be giving it back to them broken and worn, with no resources to fix it with. With every clock tick our future turns to become our present.

We are facing the current problem because we borrowed too much in the past from our future. We reached to a point where we have to work longer as we cannot afford our retirement. We have created a huge debt (and still building) that we will not be able to pay back.

We are building gas guzzler and satisfying our ego and pride and creating a future for our kids without cars. With science we know it takes 700 to 1000 years before a jungle woods can convert into coal or oil.

We are searching extraterrestrial life and destroying life on our own planet.

It is the time when we all intellectuals to come forward and join hands together to slow down our future borrowing. We are automating and replacing humans faster than creating jobs for them.
