Cooperation Is an Unsung Hero
Here’s yet one more example of cooperation in nature.
From the BBC: Ants communicate using signals with their legs and use their antennae to sense different chemicals that other ants lay on the ground called pheromones.
How they do a certain thing, however, is less important than why they do it.
One thing for sure: in the ant world, there is no such thing as greed. If a bunch of people were trying to accomplish something like this (on a human-sized scale), we’d experience all types of problems associated with certain people wanting more than their share.
If the response to COVID has shown us anything, it’s that greed and selfishness dominate the American society. You and I live among pigs, and there has never been a moment in history in which this was more apparent.
