Environment: The Other Side of Midnight.

 The human species faces extinction through autotoxicity, from poisons we are creating and steadily accumulating to the point of irreversibility. 
 Dr Abe V Rotor

Only human thinks of himself god,

mingling with the gods of Mt Olympus,

naming himself saint or demigod,

judging himself no other than himself; 

beauty he builds and later destroys, 

ugliness neither can he define nor compare;

for who would dare tell he is wrong, 

when he thinks creation is under his feet,

self-proclaimed and all knowing

save humility and lessons of history, 

his impending and final defeat.
