Jane Goodall

I really agree with what Jane Goodall said in the TED talk speech. We are actually the same as those animals we saw. It is related to an idea from Ishmael: “This world is not our world.”The phrase “our world ” is not true or false; it is only an idea that humans believe without proof. This world does not belong to any specific creature; the world cannot lose any kind of creature. Those poor and native people used natural tools to get food. They are similar to chimpanzees; chimpanzees have nine different tools to get food. From what Jane Goodall said, the difference between humans and chimpanzees is humans have language and culture, but this will not separate the “class level” of humans and chimpanzees. Goodall argued that native and poor people have no idea what happens in the world because all they do is try to survive.


An example from speech, those people in the forest cut down the trees in forest though that many pressure from foreign country, all they want is to get money and try live a day. From Phil Borges these are endangered culture. Us, who had modern education and lived in modern world, we have responsibility to tell them and help them because we made the mess. This world is all interconnections, If only the modernized people do it. The mess will still going on continuously. This is the area that we need to work on. Today, is not only how convenience is the technologies, is how “good” the technologies are. From the film Wal-Mart, what we do is not just try to get the lowest price product. We should get a good product, which means the product of the company will protect the workers. Things we do will have the consequences. For example Wal-mart gets the consequences of doing those un-man kind things. The consequences of doing these factory and company is Mother Nature will fight back. Global warming, deceases…etc are the consequence. From what the blog comment I wrote in EO Wilson said, this world people are blind fold themselves. All this consequences happening in the world is not happened separately, we should have a “global mind” think broadly.
