4 MAIN REASONS FOR INHUMANITY WITH FACTS

"Each man is haunted without humanity"--William Blake.

A person's existence is radially worthless without humanity because it is only such an asset that can bring a smile on the faces, shining in the eyes and happiness in the world.

1. The biggest reason for humans lacking humanity is selfishness. We are living in a time where we only perform tasks or work favorable for us, and we don't even evaluate what kind of impact it creates on others. We recently heard about elephant death in South India. But did you know 200 million of terrestrial animals are killed every day to satisfy human consumption? More than 42 million trees are cut down every day which has led to catastrophic consequences. The selfishness of human beings has led the world humanity to exist only in the dictionary.

2. Another aspect or reason of loss of humanity is fighting and war for ill-logical ideologies. People fight in the name of religion like Hinduism, Buddhism Christianity, etc. While every religion preaches to have humanity. We are fighting in the name of caste power and superiority this has led to questioning humanity and humans practices and ideologies.

3. Greed is another major aspect that kills humanity. Did you know we produce food 1.5 times more than we require? 

But still, more than 800 million people suffer due to lack of food, every 2 minutes a person dies due to lack of food or starvation. We are so obsessed with our greed that we don't condition to believe that the position obtained from greed does not last long.

4. Another major cause of inhumanity is destruction. Did you know the world has already lost 80% of its forests? And we are continuously losing them at the rate of 375 square kilometers per day. It seems we have no faith in each other and living in harmony has become a myth in many places. Kashmir one of the most beautiful or the most beautiful place in India is war-torn. Now whom to blame? I know we can do very little about that situation but surely can do small but essential things and deeds that affect our surroundings for sure. 

Aren't some of these facts intimidating enough to question humanity and introspect our doings?

Humans are also suffering due to their own mishaps. The current situation of COVID-19 pandemic and all-natural destruction prove that we the human beings aren't the supreme creatures and there is nothing to feel egoistic about. It also proves that a human being's existence is totally impossible without humanity and without protecting nature, there is no planet B. We are interdependent on nature and it's resources we should not forget that surely.

“During bad circumstances, which is the human inheritance, you must decide not to be reduced. You have your humanity, and you must not allow anything to reduce that. We are obliged to know we are global citizens. Disasters remind us we are world citizens, whether we like it or not.”
