Are we doing enough to save the planet?

[Impulseboy]

No, I don't.
I am not doing much for saving our planet, but I try to do more and more. It is not a simple ways to do, as we know that the population pf human in any country is increasing significantly year to year. There are many ways taken and done by government to keep and decrease the growth population of human. Those all done is to save our planet because the growth population has huge impact to our planet.

I try begin from  my self and environment. I plant many trees in my home and recycle trash become a useful thing. The most important is keeping our environment clean and healthy.

That is okay, what is important is that you are doing your part to keep your environment clean and healthy. That we are all doing our best to keep the environment clean, right?

If we are willing to save the planet we must also consider the food that we are eating. one example of that is many people still eating Oreo's by patronizing it we are indirectly killing the orangutans and the palm trees. people who concern about the planet must check everything that we consume or use including soap, clothing, food, and gadget's some of them contains the ingredient which pollutes our planet.

[Zurcermozz]

What do we do to ignore them, saving planet is a huge mission to us but many of us dont care, because all they want is the benefits for themselves. Thats the problem we are facing on, we like to save planet but we can't do it, we keep trying but the technologies advance and Factories created, and most of the trash goes to the ocean, cleaning ocean is not close enough to save planet, Billions of trash are in the ocean, and only certain countries use trash to create energy.

We are not doing enough to save our planet. We are doing something, but we are not doing enough. Imagine, you throw 1 plastic bottle into the ocean and you think to yourself, “it’s only one bottle”. But what if that’s everyone’s logic? One bottle could easily turn into hundreds, thousands and even billions. Where I am currently at, it keeps flooding and when it subsides, there are a lot of trash left. So I don’t think we are doing enough to save our planet. We should always remember that one act, even the smallest one, can make a big impact.

No, but instead we are doing enough to kill the planet. Yes, there are a lot of programs, environmental talks, and etc. But that does really help to repair the damage we already did? No, In my own perspective these things that we do like recycling, collecting trash and etc., now are just prevention (still this could be something). The damage that this planet had taken is simply not repairable.

and Somehow I don't believe in some of these environmental organizations since they are just decoys. Those who are behind it maybe one of the great contributors to these damages. This is some a plan to hide the destructive outcome of there projects and to divert the attention to the good side.

[SCRAPYCOCO]

The human being condemns himself with his way of "Evolve". Maybe many work on how to maintain the planet, but I bet that many more people are not interested in the least to save it. So fuck

As time goes by the advancement of technology really helps the world to make things easier. The time is so fast that everything that we do are all instant. But in this kind of development our planet sacrifices.. The nature was really harmed  because people are keep on cutting trees, excavate mountains for industrial purposes. The air and sea are polluted. Yes, our planet is wounded because of the people who are in focus on the growth of technology.

I agree. Our continuous pursuit of our own resources for our own personal reasons harm the environment. How do you suggest we turn all these around to prevent the worst of the effects of climate change from happening?

Be a politician/president, make new regulations that forced each people to plant 1 tree every week, and if they don't want to do it, burn their house. Sounds good.

[WHTP]

For it to be enough something like at least 70% of humanity has to be concision and willing to do something about it. That's not the case, the vast majority of people do not care, and so the efforts of a couple will not be enough. What will happen when the few that do something about it die, and not enough younger people replace them?

In a sense it reminds me of investing. Put all your eggs into one basket, win 3 times, but if you lose the 4th time, it's too late and you lose everything. Eventually it will be too late and everything will be lost.

While infrastructure and technology keeps advancing, our natural resources suffer. Sure there are people who tries to save our planet by diving into the water and collecting trash, or encouraging anyone to recycle or stop using plastic. But is it enough? If it is, then why are we still experiencing climate change? Could this be the start of the destruction of our planet?

I personally believe that humans would die long before many of the plants, insects and animals die. With the exception of a total nuclear catastrophe. So chemicals breed bacteria and create all sorts of imbalances in our atmosphere which lead to mold and other issues. Couple that with radiation constantly being leaked into our ocean and our sky. Also factor in massive massive overpopulation and then at some point there is a resource imbalance. Chances are it will create a chain reaction. Hunger is always followed by disease. Not to mention what the militaries of our world could do to humans and the earth. It's not a matter of if, it's a matter of time. Already people have disorders of all sorts that didn't exist even 50 years ago. Our bodies cannot evolve fast enough to keep up with the toxins. Now the question is will some humans survive? I say it depends on how bad the air and soil is and if it's continuing to pollute like Fukushima. There will be a few but will they sustain? Especially if there is still petrol to fight over even though Tesla proved we don't need it as there is free energy all around.

[GDragon]

No of course not at all. As we can see, day by day our environment has been continuing to be polluted and also our resources continuing to be limited. We all knew also that there are few people only concern in this issue. If we are helping each other then maybe it is enough but this thing might not possible.

[Dadaro]

Any changes starts with ourselves. Just like what ghandi said "be the change you wish to see in the world" this line is very powerful. I live up my life in that.

[KirunBarber]

I admit, planet Earth is getting older and older. the balance of nature with technology is farther away. and without life technology will also be silent. so it's better and I think someone has started to protect our natural ecosystem.
tree, animal, water, soil.
and I am still lucky to live in a country that is still a lot of free nature.

[btcmerchant]

Trust me with the current technology humans can't destroy Earth and let alone can save it. Even a Mars size object collision can't destroy Earth. Only humans and other lifeforms would be destroyed. Some bacteria would even survive on this collision.

You worry about pollution? Without humans those most polluted river in the world would be crystal clear in less than 200 years. All plastics  would be gone in 200 years time too. Most metals would rust. In 1000 years without human those cities would become Forrest. Humans don't need do anything to save this planet. All we need to do be gone and Our planet can repair itself.

[admosfir]

I think it will never been enough, even though currently many companies are using environmentally friendly waste management and many technologies that use renewable resources, only a small part of them care about the environment, most of them don't care, just think about profits

No we are certainly developing and improving ourselves more day by day but we are not following the concept of sustainable development and without it being in practice we are putting our planet in great danger which no science , no war , no superhero can solve . So taking the responsibility to save my planet I urge you all to take as many precautions as you can take to save the earth and it's natural resources.

Another useful idea is to stop chopping down trees to feed electricity generation plants.

As strange as that may look, that does not increase the balance of CO2 in the atmosphere, since is liberating the carbon that has been previously absorbed by the trees and the result is neutral.

Obviously you need to re-plant.

[Elqui]

No we are not, we are slowly making earth die because of the pollution, we have to make use of our new technology to make earth a better place for us and to more people in the future.

[odolvlobo]

Without human, the world will never have to go through this.

That is not true. In the past, the temperatures have been both much warmer and much colder than they are now.

People that want to "save the planet" must remember that we are not saving the planet for its sake, we are saving it for our sake. The planet was ok before humans arrived, it is ok now, and it will be ok after humans have gone.
