I have a theory of everything (or at least things involving humans). Theory: When humans fix one problem they are likely creating another problem.

- frogpelt 6y agoI don't mean to imply that humans are terrible. I just mean that we think we have a lot of answers when we don't. I came up with my theory when I read about Norman Borlaug and how he developed GMO semi-dwarf wheat which is purported to have saved a billion lives from starvation. But people now blame GMO crops for all manner of problems like unhealthy gut, Autism Spectrum Disorders, gluten sensitivity, etc. In sum, we're just trying to do the best we can, and we can't see all the possible consequences of our actions.
