Humans are the most savage

I am very grateful to the director and this photographer for letting me know the history of extreme poverty and wars in many countries in the world from the beginning of the 19th century to the end of the 20th century, the gold rush in Brazil, the people near the North Pole, Egypt It is unimaginable to imagine the lack of living conditions in Ethiopia, Congo, Brazil, Yarak, Yugoslavia, Kuwait, etc. Perhaps the limitations of human beings make many people think that life is similar to their own in every part of the world. I don't know why Saddam Hussey ordered all the oil fields to be lit, but it turned out that all the people in that land suffered because of it.
I don't know the entanglement of interests and the development of relations between countries in the world, each individual is under the control of the earth's environment and the authorities! The photographer's parents and children planted seeds and reclaimed the wasteland, which improved the ecological environment around the place of residence. The photographer told us with practical actions that nature can be improved by the protection of human beings. But if there is another Saddam regime, how long will it take mankind to slowly heal and smooth the wounds!
Every day of life is so precious! Cherish hard work!

    Salgado is not only a wonderful narrator of light and shadow, but his poetic and precise words are also powerful. In my eyes, human beings are the viruses of the earth, corrupting heaven into purgatory, but the master has never fallen into nothingness after seeing famine, suffering, tyranny and killing. He said: I love human beings, they are the salt of the earth-this is commendable. The earth soothes and heals Salgado's broken and desperate heart. The forest he planted is a repayment and reward for the planet.

    Going to look for Sebastian Salgado's photography book, the whole movie seems to read the suffering of the world, and then let the soul be reborn.

The Salt of the Earth quotes

  • Sebastião Salgado - Photographer: We are a ferocious animal. We humans are terrible animals. Our history is a history of wars. It's an endless story, a tale of madness.

  • Sebastião Salgado - Photographer: To think that these three-month-old trees will reach their apex in 400 years. Perhaps from there we could try to grasp the concept of eternity. Maybe eternity is measurable.
