We must realize as a society that we are living in a world that offers us vital resources, which are limited and that as people in constant reproduction we must take care of the form of consumption and exploitation of nature in a capitalist world, that what is sought is the growth of capital and generate more and more production and consumption, taking into account that we are not the only species that inhabits this planet and that we are part of an entire ecosystem that also has basic needs that nature offers us.
