人一旦闖入一座百萬年來自給自足的生態樂園，遲早會進行佔有、剝削、改造，直到樂園完全由兩足動物主宰為止。伊甸園交到人手裡，很快就成了屠宰場。在南美洲一望無際單調的牧場上已無法想像她五十年前原始雨林的風貌，此地動植物的生物多樣性原本豐沛至極，一組來自紐約植物園的人員，曾於巴西巴伊亞州計算出一公頃的土地上面樹木多達452種。在秘魯境內亞馬遜河流域的森林小徑上，十公頃面積的土地裡有365種螞蟻，有時同一棵樹上住著43種螞蟻，這個數目剛好是整個英倫群島上已知所有螞蟻種類的總數。
生長著如此豐富的生物基因庫，其中還是有個美中不足的地方，那就是它不長「錢」。這點對現代人來說「最糟莫過於此」。現代智人已經進化成將萬事萬物化約為金錢數字，將所有價值代換成經濟價值，累計金錢是每個國家、團體、個人，拼死拼活的原動力。鈔票不分國界種族老幼真是人見人愛。因此，當人發現這些螞蟻變不了幾塊錢之後，立刻判定沒什麼價值，放把火燒掉它，光是放牛吃草就能眼睜睜地看著鈔票從土裡一張一張冒出來。這件事對每天要消耗成噸皮革的製鞋大廠來說，更是大利多。牛養越多便能取得越便宜的皮革原料，只要能壓低原料成本便能創造企業更大利潤，消費者也能買到更便宜的產品。國家、企業、農民、消費者，大家都賺大家都贏，棒吧！輸的只是螞蟻。
人類長期演化下來，已經變成盡量滿足自己，汲汲於自身及少數親友的短期利益，最多只關心眼前一小塊地區一小群族人，以及一兩個世代的發展。如果要看到其它生物的利益，全球長遠永續的營運，或是世世代代子子孫孫的福祉，那已超出多數人腦神經的運算能力，要演化出普世關懷的新人種，人還有很長的路要走，不曉得地球能否撐到那一天。

Once mankind breaks into the self-sufficient eco Eden for millions of years, sooner or later he would occupy, exploit, and reform till this paradise is totally ruled by the two-leg standing animal. The Eden would soon become a slaughter house upon handing over to mankind. In the farms which are so large beyond the horizons and boring in South America, it is almost impossible to imagine the primitive rainforest look half century ago. The biodiversity at this place used to be very abundant. A group of staffs from New York Botanic Garden once calculated that there are 452 kinds of trees on just one hectare of land in Bahia, Brazil. On the forest path of Amazon River basin inside Peru, there are 365 kinds of ants inside the 10 hectares land. Sometimes there are 43 kinds of ants living on the same tree and this number is just the total sum of known species of ants on the whole British Islets.
There is still something imperfect about such abundant and flourishing biological generic data base, which is it does not grow “money.” For people in the modern society, “it cannot be worsen than no money.” The sapient mankind of modern age already evolves so well that he transforms everything into monetary figures and replaces all kinds of value into economic one. Money accumulation becomes the major drive for each nation, group or individuals. The bills are so adorable that people crossing the national boundary all love them. Therefore, when mankind finds out that ants cannot trade for few bills, he immediately decides it has no value at all and set a fire to burn it down. Watching cows eating grass in the farm, mankind already could visualize bills growing out from the soil. It is such great news for giant shoe-making factories which consume tons of leathers everyday. The more cows they raise, the cheaper the leathers are. So long as the cost of materials reduced, they could create better profit for the companies while consumers could enjoy products in cheaper price. Nation, corporation, farmers and consumers all save money and win. Is this great?! The loser is only ant.
After such long period of evolution, mankind becomes to satisfy his own need as much as possible, indulge short-term interest for his own and few family members and relatives. He only cares about the little piece of land and a small group of people in front of him, or at last development in one or two generations. If we want to seek interest for other living creatures and look sustainability for the world or happiness for descendants in generation after another generation, it is already too much for most people’s brains in terms of the calculation capacity. In order to evolve into new species of human beings with universal caring, there is still a very long way to go and we have no idea whether the Earth could hold on till that day.
