shamou,

man's dominance over other people translates into a need for dominance over nature. for 2000 years our culture has been based on men dominating other men, and men dominating nature, rather than people working together and with nature.

one of my beliefs is that in learning how to deal with each other in a collaborative way, humans learn how to deal with the planet in a collaborative way. dominance is not required or rewarded in this new paradigm, but ingenuity is.
