Abstract: This article is a scholarly essay that uses secondary data sources together with historical analysis to provide and broad overview of the development of humans throughout their long history on Earth, how humans have slowly decoupled themselves from Darwinian evolutionary condition by developing language and intelligence which, in turn, has allowed them to adapt the environment to fit their needs instead of simply adapting themselves to fit the harshness of the natural environment and a survival of the fittest principle. Thus, unlike all non-human species, as human society continues to evolve, the process of natural selection seems to apply less and less to the human species. With the development of language and intelligence, humans have progressed at an amazing rate in terms of quality of life, inventions, knowledge of how the world works and humans' place in it, and their development as free moral agents. However, this new human condition has brought with it, especially within the last few hundred years, major impacts to the planet. As a result of these impacts, this article has argued that humans must view human creativity as a renewable human resources that should be nurtured at every stage of human development and every stage in the educational process and see it as a critical factor creating a more a sustainable and just environment for all (humans, animals, and the natural environment).
