Men haven't really thought of that - nature as the BOSS! I think we thought of that pretty late. Mother nature is starting her sweet revenge!

I believe that vindictiveness is a uniquely human trait and not part of the natural processes.

While many of our actions can have consequences on ecological systems which, in turn, can impact us negatively, earthquakes and tsunamis do not fall into that category.

We show our higher humanity and moral purpose when we care for those impacted by these recent events.
