"The green contract" is an unspoken pact for symbiosis on earth. This is the most basic and essential of all natural laws. It is a law that ensures all things which feed off of plants, will then contribute to the regeneration of them through adapted survival methods. Just as some flowers produce tasty nectar to attract birds, insects, and even some small mammals in order to spread their pollen, other plants adapted nutrient rich and tasty vegetables and fruits to spread their seed. The first and only species to break the green contract was the human. We use products which the earth is incapable of reincorporating into itself healthily in a manner which is beneficial to all living things. We create waste and overpopulate at overwhelming rates. We over consume and we do so in a way which makes it entirely impossible to sustain that which we use. The entire earth was once an orb of boiling and bubbling lava. Oxygen bubbles formed in that lava and were released into the air creating what we now know as our atmosphere. Eventually that oxygen created a layer of ozone which shielded the earth from the sun's intensely hot rays. The lava was cooled as a result of this ozone layer and began to form masses of land and water. The first forms of life existed in these masses of water as bacteria. Those bacteria made it possible for barnacles to form and eventually to evolve into plants on land. Other organisms also emerged from this, insects and fish, then later birds and reptiles. Over the process of hundreds of millions of years, a true abomination of a species evolved, the human species. The human burned these fossil fuels buried deep within our earth's crust and layers and created once again a carbon rich environment. In unnatural processes the humans rape the earth of its resources and oil and use them to pollute, destroying the layer of ozone that the earth fought so hard to establish. We set up factory farms for cows where rainforests once stood, to slake our greedy and
