In the tale, chaos envelopes everything on Earth as war broke out. The Norse gods follow man's actions. As men kill each other, the gods fight and die. Eventually both good and evil are destroyed. The destruction of the world follows the downfall of human civilization.
First men begin to fight among themselves, then the world is sent into the terrible winter.
It seems that people have the power to save or destroy the world. We can learn a lesson from the Norse legend. We have the capabilities to destroy the atmosphere, poison the oceans, and push many species into extinction. If the world is to be saved, we must work to keep habitats safe for all organisms and end the threat of war. A push of a single button could forever change the destiny of mankind and the world.
