Consider global warming, pollution, endangered animals and their habitats. Humans keep growing and spreading like ants. Do you think there will come a time when nature decides enough is enough? Maybe we will become the endangered species if we are faced with earthquakes, hurricanes, tsunamis, droughts, floods, volanic eruptions and new uncurable/fatal diseases. I think one day, nature is going to hit the "reset" button.

Nature is more subtle than that. It's way of fighting an over dominant species is through disease and natural equilibrium
- ex: too many individuals = less resources = decline in population.
The real problem is that we figured out how to "fight" nature, and the consequences are all those disasters you mentioned.

Nature can't decide anything, it's not a conscience living organism. It's not alive and won't fight back. We do not have as much influence in this world as we give ourselves credit for. All these things (earthquakes, hurricanes, etc...) have been here long before us and they will be here long after us. I would say we'll kill each other with nukes and through war long before nature has anything to say about it.

Nature is not a person so don't treat it as such. It is not sitting there stewing away and getting ticked of to the point where it will go on a rampage. Nature is not going to attack us with earthquakes if we pollute a lake.

I think so, in a subconscious way. We will beat ourselves. Not everything will live through our pollution and as we kill plants and animals, some that we didn't even know exited, we will become more ignorant. If we kill plants and animals, we need them and in turn it will kill us. In a way, nature is fighting back but in another way, we're only hurting ourselves. I credit this to my 7th grade science teacher who taught me all there is to know about pollution!

If global warming continues, we will have severe flooding and hypercanes (extremely powerful hurricanes, like category 8-9).

Mother has already taken care of the CO2 problem for u. They are called green plants and they are doing a great job. Oh the process is photosynthesis.

According to Dia's theory, the Earth is a living being and therefore, it will know how to adjust itself; and part of that adjusting is through "fighting back"

Nature is always fighting back against imbalances, no matter who or what is causing them.
