Microorganisms
Microcorganisms really know how to take care of crap - literally! They breakdown waste from living beings and they decompose bodies. Without microorganisms, we would be surrounded with feces and dead bodies!
Bacteria, fungi, protists, and other microorganisms really get a fearful reputation. Once humans were able to recognize these unseen beings under a microscope, their mind fills with disinfecting ideas. Truly, microbes live in every corner of Earth - from hot springs to the brutal cold of Antarctica - and they live all over every living organism! And so microbes are an integral part of the life force on Earth.
Whether they are benign or harmful to humans, we can learn to respect the role of microorganisms on Earth.
