[FONT=&quot]An ever-growing number of people have their view of the sky obstructed by the light pollution of our cities. Some go years without once gawking at the moon or the stars. It’s an apt metaphor of our whole human situation.[/FONT](From The Deepest Human Life by Scott Samuelson)

Does "whole human situation" mean "situation of whole human" or "whole situation of human"?
 
Neither. It means: the entire situation of all of humanity, that is to say, of all people.
