smoke choked

if the uncivilized humankind did not want to burn the land
their family and themselves would die because of no harvest and thus no income from their crops.
while,
if the uncivilized humankind burned the land for obtaining fertile land to plant their crops
everyone would die together because of absorbing too much of harmful smoke.

what would you choose if you were one of the uncivilized people or if you were a educated people but facing starvation/fatal for not growing crops by burning land??
even a fool would choose the second choice.
because they would want to die together with million/billion living creature rather than die alone because of poverty.
it's just too difficult to groom great people in the world as selfish people are all around every single corner in this planet.

this time,
i would not like to curse the uncivilized people as i know they're all forced by the reality. this is one of the instincts of human to survive in hard situation.

but these just cost too high.
uncountable creature life.
the innocent babies.
the helpless animals.
the frail old folks.
the sturdy teenagers.
the one and only planet.

we're all increasingly weak
and one day we'll be died together.

sighs.
