While nature supports us, it can also destroy us: Kriti Kulhari

Kirti Kulhari says natural calamities are lessons in humility and humans are greedy and feel they are superior to everything.

I think everything that is happening right now, including the pandemic, cyclone, locust attacks etc, it’s nature’s way of balancing things. Humans perceive these problems as something against them but it is nature’s way of resetting,” states actor Kirti Kulhari, talking about the need of conservation this Environment Day.

She adds, “Respecting anything including nature is all about having an attitude of gratitude. Everything in our existence is because of nature and one should recognise it in small and big ways. While I can see the destruction being caused, I can also see the bigger picture and feel it is nature’s way of waking us up to the abuse and exploitation of earth. All living beings can live in harmony with each other but humans are greedy and feel they are superior to everything. Natural calamities are lessons in humility which prove we are not bigger than nature. Unless we change our habits that cause harm to nature, we will keep facing such problems. While nature supports us, it can also destroy us.”
