An ecological revolution

It's not political.

It's not based on anyone's borders, or offences against anyone else.

Well, at least anyone human.

Just look at the history of our earth...

We've had an Industrial Revolution...a world-wide change that affected all of the earth inhabitants.

But nobody paid a bit of attention to the wildlife, nor the oceans or forests. They were also affected.

The next revolution is coming. And I have no idea how it will look. But basically, something will make a crisis. Then people will lose a lot of the power they depend upon. Then the wildlife, oceans and forests (and all of ecological life) will come to the forefront of existence, with humanity as just a part of the whole.

That's the main sign that it's happening, humanity will no longer be looked at as any leadership any more. Perhaps we will be caged to control our contrary ways. Or maybe we'll have some mental evolutionary changes that help us feel equality with the environment. That would indeed be preferable to the cages.

We just don't get it yet.

What should it be called?

How will we recognize it? I like thinking of how the first machines made humanity's work easier for them. And how attractive they became.

So I'm thinking this will be very attractive in comparison with the climate change disasters, failing civilizations, and need to survive for humanity in the near future. The many dystopian movies and books are of little interest for me. It's the ecological dominance in the distant future that is intriguing.
