In 2022, we have the misfortune of living on a dying planet. Humanity is destroying the Earth through pollution and carbon dioxide emissions and when the population increases, the carbon dioxide emissions also increase. Climate change is only a symtom of the underlying problem: overpopulation. At the same time, a nuclear war and World War III are threatening. We live in a world of suffering, overpopulation, global warming, injustices, world poverty, wars, war refugees, climate refugees, extinction of species and starvation. When the Earth´s glaciers have melted, the sea level will rise eighty meters. Our industrial civilization is a complete failure. Saving the Earth from the climate apocalypse would require a complete reinvention of humanity. Living on a dying planet is not enough, people are also tormented by their own sufferings with health problems and diseases.
Maybe you are chronically ill. Or maybe you have nothing left to live for. You know that you must die anyway - so you think that maybe it´s better to take control over your own death. Why should you suffer for months, years or decades in meaningless suffering? But the fear of death is stopping you and therefore you chicken out every time you try to attempt suicide. The reason is that our body doesn´t want you to die. Fear helps us to survive. You would have died a long time ago if you weren´t programmed to live. Fear is an unpleasant feeling which we don´t want. Physical and mental pain are also unpleasant experiences that we want to get rid off. When we experience pain, we try to remove it. Medication can relieve pain, but often you have to increase the dose for the medication to have the same effect as before. But when all the aids of life fail, death may be the only solution. You want to take away the pain. You want to die but you can´t kill yourself. You have ended up in catch-22 - a situation of conflicting rules which make it impossible for you to escape from the situation. You are in the worst situation of your life. The solution to this problem is to introduce human euthanasia for anyone who wants it. But that change in the law may take decades or perhaps human euthansia will never be introduced. So how do you get out of this situation yourself? Maybe it´s about mathematics: pain > fear = death. However, if you could live in a perfect world without injustices in a beautful beach house with a young, beautiful and healthy body and with a lot of money - would you still be suicidal? Think about it: Do you want to die or do you only want to take away the pain?
