“Our culture has lost its compass, we are walking blindly, swept away by events, going wherever the wind blows. We must restart the journey towards a new direction, for with the pandemic that struck the planet, we realized that humans do not transcend nature, are not superior to animals, but are part of nature. The dominance that in the past was a strategic adaptation for survival now only brings unhappiness.”
