Peace is only desired when the right to live is at stake. But warring factions can’t demand for it until they have had exchanges of violence. What usually drives them to finally demand for peace is the result of their then regretted actions after show of what they call might towards destroying one another.
Because of the above, we have seen nations go to war against nations, individuals and many other factions. But there is one among all other groups man has called for war with. Nature. Like us, Nature has rights and freedoms but doesn’t have a ‘Martine King JR’ or a Nelson Mandela to fight for her unrecognized and unheard voice. There are things on Earth which cannot speak for them, they cannot fight for themselves, can’t riot, can’t drag man to courts of law, but do more than that when they go instinct because their importance is over emphasized until their importance is over emphasized and their existence is under serious threat
Nature has fought back without hands or guns but with what is worse than the two. Therefore the equilibrium man imbalanced is over lapping on the side of man is now seeing Nature putting man in a state of daring need.
It’s now a vicious circle, no tree will ever protest a power saw. Even with many species gone into extinction and many others following the same route, if they would say a word it would be enough is enough.
Was it a nation, the tax payer’s money would return to them inform of different services and infrastructure. The trees to pay taxes through what they offer in contribution to existence of life. The more they give the more they receive of all the factors that aid their existence naturally.
With trees cut, the chain is cut and many things can not be done in the natural world. Why the acid rains, the sea has to answer. Why drought, the sun has to answer, why the death of innocent wildlife some of which are of no single use besides tourism and studies, the land has to answer. What will then happen when the answers to the disorder in the planet are traced back to man and his activities
Plants who are the tax payers of the king –the sun in what is called the affairs of mutual understanding, business are being cut down by man. As an interferer of the affairs of this Kingdom, man becomes an enemy of the Sun kingdom. A war is soon planned to be wagged on man but given the divers ways of management of the sun, the Sun allies with the sea and the land against man. The battle is leaning to mans` side when he realizes that it is claiming many of its own kinds.
But man faces the biggest problem in fighting this battle-ignorance of what caused it, and defense for its cause.
The play is about how his poor management of his resources lands him into be managed by the resources themselves. But the mystery question remains; can the resources in the divers manner manage man, and if so, how?
SCENE: ONE
In a summit attended by the land, the sea, and the green nation chaired by the Sun, turn up is great and the atmosphere is very serious.
SUN : ………………….thank you very much for your applauses. Land, sea, green nation and the entire body of Mother Nature, good afternoon. I am most appreciative of your turnover for this summit and would like to take this opportunity to welcome you one and all. It shows we have a goal, a problem and an interest that differs not. I want to accord my heartfelt grievances to the sea creatures and the citizens of the green nation who in executing their duties of existence fell in the poisoned hands of our once greatest ally now our arch enemy. Man has over the years developed and found very many causes to deny us freedom to interact, settle and to exist. Yet he`s no more without us. Even worse, he has not realized that his rapid interference with us is more defective to him.
And though we have not gathered here for that, yet it’s necessary for me to make it known to some of you who might not see this meeting of a great importance for the self rule we seek especially you who`ve not had man get you wish he never existed. By that am referring to you- Space. I equally want to thank you in a very special way for joining the struggle.
Man was made to protect, conserve and manage us not to exploit and victimize us by his careless and irresponsible approaches with of course no one pointing a finger at him. Before you understand why man needs to be under our management and not us under him .
