Can you elaborate on this? In terms of nature, what would you think humans have created more than destroyed?
- grondilu 10y agoI was precisely thinking of non-natural things they created. OP did not specify a reason why natural things should be more valuable than others. So if we consider all things humans did, regarding nature or not, it's not clear to me they destroyed more than they created.
