Seven Inventions Made Redundant by Nature

Why do we invent things to do what nature already does for us?

I think the human race is a time waster and a make work project! We create things to do things 4 or 5 times over when they only need to be done once, we over process everything from thoughts to food! We don't know where to stop! This is ridiculous why develop something to do something we don't need doing!

  1. Air filters. Why don't we just stop polluting so much or move? The only reason we need an air filter is because we dirty the very air we rely on to live! This doesn't make much sense, how do other animals survive if we need artificial air, we are being kind of unfair are we not?
  2. Weight lifting and exercise machines. Okay, this is a serious issue, we spend trillions yearly on exercise machines. Why don't we go split out own wood? Walk to work or to shop? Why do we spend the time we save by driving to work and ordering pre-split wood to go use a gym or exercise machine? There is literally millions of things like this we cut corners to save time and avoid exercise to make time for the gym, that is a double negative my friend, and those of us who payed attention in English class know that that is a waste of time!
  3. Mowing the lawn. go buy a goat!
  4. Fish Farms. Can't we just not pollute our water so that more fish can survive then we won't need fish farms!
  5. Compost bins. These have always mystified me as they seem to serve absolutely no purpose. They work if you are depositing exactly 1 ice cream bucket of household compost a day and using that much dirt on a weekly basis! What is wrong with a nice little pile where you dump the new stuff at one end and use the dirt from the other, it is free, works better, not made of plastic to further harm the environment and it is a waste of money! Get real! Make a pile!
  6. Pooper Scoopers. Seriously, just curb it or go for a walk in the woods, there are fungi and bugs that need poop to live, why are we scooping it?
  7. Pesticides. If we didn't insist on growing things where they are not meant to be grown we would not need pesticides as pests that eat it don't live where it naturally grows! Why must we argue with nature!
