English Critical Thinking essay on Urban Changes

Scenario/Introduction: When we destroy our environments and have nothing left to revere (maybe because we are choosing not to), we are done in. Human ignorance and greed are hurtling us through unsettling times of war and violence, human migrations, and dwindling resources. The resulting trauma affects all sentient life forms: Nature, animals, marine life, birds, humans. Such events lead to trauma, identity distortion, loss of resources and of home. (NB: This above is NOT your prompt but simply a scenario of what is happening.)
