It really highlights the result of greed and the unending desire to enjoy by exploiting nature.
Krishna highlighted this propensity for uncontrolled sense gratification  5000 years ago in the 16th Chapter of the Bhagavad Gita. (you'll have to read it).

  1. This was so hard-hitting, even when I was very close to falling asleep after only sleeping 3 hours last night, my eyes and ears will still stuck to it.
