Chapter 512: The Milky Way Explosion, Ephemeral Eternity, Growing Old_1

As recorded in every historical text.

Since the birth of human civilization on Earth, the struggle has never ceased.

In primal societies where people subsisted on wild game, humans fought against nature and ferocious beasts.

In feudal societies, mankind had to contend with both plagues and their own greed.

In modern societies, mankind's enemies were not just plagues and self-interest, but also energy crises and environmental pollution.

There were always absurd calls to save the Earth.

However, the 4.6-billion-year-old Earth didn't need saving from humanity. The damage that humans caused to the environment was trivial compared to an asteroid impact or Earth's volcanic eruptions.

What humanity needed to save was their own fate.

If humans couldn't solve the energy crisis in the 21st century and find an effective way to sustain their growth, the Earth would suffer no harm. The only ones destroyed would be humans themselves.
