So far, we are dealing with the management of the pandemic. What is missing so far is how to avoid such crises in the future.
Why did this happen to us?
- As a warning against even worse crises
- Game, livestock and animal products are transported around the globe .
- Another reason is factory farming, e.g. swine flu, bird flu, or Spanish flu.
- We humans are claiming more and more wildlife habitats for ourselves. Environmental degradation affects natural species communities. Thus, contact between wildlife, livestock and humans is increasing .
- The Corona crisis shows that humanity has reached a turning point, it must preserve the remaining natural areas. Species protection must finally also be given a necessary status in political and scientific decisions get.
- Global travel has increased sharply, e.g. Ischgl, second wave.
- Production in low-wage countries causes business trips, e.g. Webasto
- Just in Time production reduces storage and creates dependence on functioning transport chains, e.g. mask shortage
- Our comsum pattern: everything everywhere all the time.
