When things get complicated.

I lis­te­ned to this while wri­ting this post, try it while you read :o)

This post is the twen­ty-second in a series of posts about a reflec­tion on our abi­li­ty to social­ly evolve. These posts should be read in the order of their publi­ca­tion. For example, star­ting with the 6th would make no sense to the rea­der. Hap­py reading!

So what? Things get com­pli­ca­ted? Of course they do. If we start from the pre­mise that we have accu­mu­la­ted a mul­ti­tude of solu­tions to a mul­ti­tude of pro­blems. Let’s take food as an example. Addres­sing the avai­la­bi­li­ty of food, no lon­ger having to hunt or gather direct­ly from what nature wants to offer us, by repla­cing the pro­duc­tion of food sources with arti­fi­cial sources. Live­stock, agri­cul­ture and others, these are all means of being able to control the sup­ply of food. But then the finer issues came up.

Eve­ry time we want to improve our lot, new pit­falls appear and we address them. Eve­ry time we suc­ceed in pro­vi­ding solu­tions that respond to more people, the risk of losing these solu­tions also increases. Solu­tions for drin­king water, clo­thing and hou­sing in increa­sin­gly per­ilous and dif­fi­cult cli­mates. Humans living in remote areas, them­selves addres­sing tar­ge­ted needs such as mining or exploi­ta­tion of other natu­ral resources. All of this is trans­for­ming our way of doing things and alte­ring our ances­tral reflexes. This is a good thing in itself, but could we get to the point where obli­vion becomes a silent ene­my who on the loo­kout for us?
