Is Our Fate Called Panem?

"There was once a place called North America. But droughts and fires, hurricanes and tornadoes, and encroaching seas took their toll. Brutal wars broke out as people fought for the few remaining resources. The earth was scarred and desolate, the people terrified and hopeless. But out of the ashes rose Panem, a nation made up of a great Capitol, ringed by thirteen districts, which brought peace and prosperity to its citizens for many generations." This is the introduction of the Hunger Games. It is not in the perspective of Katniss Everdeen, the protagonist of the story. This is the introduction of Panem, a dystopian nation that formed after global warming and disaster. 

This sounds like us... well, kind of. There is also another thing. Our craving for entertainment genres like teens, violence, and romance. Panem's citizens( mostly in the Capitol) love to watch the Hunger Games. They love to watch a romantic teenage violence. We like this too. Why else do we love shows like Jersey Shore, or Big Brother, or Temptation Island. We like drama, cheating, life and death situations. We also like being part of the spies. We watch people be in positions that we never want to be in. 

I read the book, The Girl who was on Fire. There was an essay on muttations. The muttations in the Capitol are cruel and scary and love to eat... EVERYTHING! We see muttations of giant wolves that resembled the tributes of the 74th annual Hunger games. We see tracker-jackers. We see President Snow's white rose. We see the orange monkeys in the Third Quarter Quell. We see the half-human and half-lizard monsters that eat Finnick in the undergrounds of the Capitol. Then we see mutts that don't eat you. The jabberjays and most importantly, the Mockingjays. We have our own muttations. We made a mechanical sheep with human hormones. We call her Polly. We also made a spliced jellyfish. Humans have created life. As long as were not madmen, we can create non-vicious creatures. We have to have to have good intentions for the things we create. Or else it will become another version of Mary Shelley's Frankenstein.  

I have stated three things that could lead to the destruction of the human race( Panem ). It doesn't mean it will, but if it is taken to the wrong and overconfident level, it will. Our cravings and curiosity might lead to Panem. Or have you noticed global warming? The ice is melting. Land might flood. There is more heat. This could lead to the world of Katniss Everdeen. Panem is coming.
