After debating together the principles of a utopia or dystopia, we all decided there can’t be a utopia in the world we live right now, or in the future. We believe a utopian world would be that one where the different species, organisms, etc. are able to interact peacefully with each other and within their own groups. We consider that in the past, long ago, when humanity was still in a stage when we were just primates, a utopia might have existed. A period in which animals, plants and the other constituents of the planet were not massively destroyed by our hands, where they could live happily, peacefully without any out-of-normal threat to their species survival.  But that was a long time ago and right now, with us inhabiting these landscapes, we are lost, we live in a messed-up world in which we are not able to communicate or understand others, not even ourselves.  We live in a world that has been taken by the power and greed of a few, and so, it has been transformed into a dystopia. A planet, in which people have been dehumanized, destroyed and humiliated; a world in which we are held prisoners of our own rage, of our diversity of creations. Therefore, we believe anything like the world we live in right now or an image of what we think it will be in the future, are just dystopias, while anything similar to those years before we thought of changing and “improving” our world would be called a utopia.
