Are we doing enough to save the planet?

[Impulseboy]

People that want to "save the planet" must remember that we are not saving the planet for its own 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.

I agree with this 100%. Although, yes, we are also trying to "save" it for the planet's sake, the call for action was more for our sake because, if we do not take care of our own planet, who will suffer in the end? Us. Therefore, we should be more careful when throwing our trash elsewhere. At least with that, we could help limit the trash, right?

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.

Isn’t the planet earth bound to get too hot, then too cold eventually? Isn’t that why the Ice Age occured? I saw in a documentary once before that showed how the Earth goes through this regular cycle where it’ll eventually gets colder and colder, but then global warming and  climate change has been disrupting it.

This is true, however, I think that odolvlobo has a point as well. Although we are saving the planet to refrain from destroying it completely, we are also trying to save it for us, its inhabitants. If we do not start now, then we are not only destroying the planet, we are also slowly killing us, right?

Don't ever ask this question again on Bitcointalk. Cryptocurrency is all about wasting energy to mine non-existent "currency". Despite being a supporter of Cryptocurrency for years, I do not like the fact that we're actually wasting electricity for non-existent currency which we make it existent. Even though Cryptocurrency may solve a lot of problems through mining, I still feel that it is not worth it in the long run. This is part of the reason why I stopped using Bitcoin.

We could actually use those wasted electricity for better and more scientific research that will make us understand our planet, solar system, the universe and beyond better.

While I agree that we should use those wasted electricity on better and more scientific research so we could better understand our planet, I think that awareness is also important. Perhaps this will catch the attention of the miners to seek a greener alternatives to electricity. After all, a little might go a long way, right?

The brutal and Satanic forces of nature were never man's friend in the first pace and he who places his faith in his own hands are at its mercy since the dawn of chaos. You are being conditioned to accept responsibility by those who have usurped and profited from environmental destruction of the natural habitat. It is those very ones who provoked it through policy who wish to have you self immolate and atone with self hatred for your very own race.Nature has been brutally and clinically Satanic from the primordial and when God is not present you are at it's mercy.

[Renampun]

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?

cleaning the world of trash is not enough to stop climate change...
The CO2 released by factories and vehicles is still the biggest threat to climate change in the world, the possible mass use of batteries and also green energy will definitely reduce CO2 emission and will surely heal the earth a little from climate change.

[hornetsnest]

No matter what YOU do it will NEVER be enough.Nature is Satanic by nature and is only subdued when God is present to those he favours.The forces of Satan will use the forces of Nature against you to subdue YOU.

I agree with what you have said. We  humans are very insignificant compared to the vastness of Earth's geology and history. Many climate changes have occured in the past and man is simply incapable of stopping a new one in our midst. Prepare instead of spreading fear and incertainty. The only way for us to survive is to adapt.

[sportclub2010]

It is high time to stop burning oil and gas. We need to throw all our efforts into creating alternative energy sources. Maybe in 2050 all this will happen.

[imutlinda]

It is true that the changing state of the planet is a process that undergo in its own system. However, the worsening state of the planet is triggered from the consequences of people’s activities. There is an urgent need to start acting and educating oneself in matters such as this.

Why you so negative? You are like the doomsayers during the Roman Empire asking if this is the end of Rome while Nero enjoys seeing his beloved city burn. The planet Earth would still be here after we are long gone. 4 billion more years before it will be disintegrated by an enlarging Sun turning into a red giant. People will try to fix the planet one way or another. Or perhaps, climate change might be Earths way of cleaning the mess created by humans. The sea rises, doesn't matter in a world without humans. The sea level drops, doesn't matter also, we are but small ants in a very big world.

He has raised valid points though, ngl. We are as you said, like ants in a big world, but we can't deny that our brains are not like that of ants or of any other living being in the world (or in the universe). Just think about it, if we are the only intelligent living creature in the whole of the infinite universe, shouldn't we do more than just sitting and letting mother nature finishes us like it did to dinosaurs? We should do more, use this brain gift, and utilize it to the fullest so that we can fight the entropy of human race and reverse its progress and saving the species as whole, like with other planet colozination, or using moon's surface for growing crops? So much we can do!

There is no way we could safe this planet Earth cause their is a lot of activities we are into that are destroying our environment and climate which are inevitable. The continuous emissions of harmful gases and waste has a long term adverse effect on our habitat and every organisms dwelling on it.
You know we can't stop producing bombs, weapons, radioactive wastes, biohazards and many more which are mostly used for day to activities. Every countries is advancing in her technology innovations in order to compete with her neighbors, contributing to the level of hazards found in our environment, killing the Earth gradually.

[GeorgeJohn]

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.

Honestly we need to develop more advanced technology to forsee what life as to offer us. If we say we don't want more pollutions in our environment or we want to clean the Earth with is very much difficult, how will technology be developed?

Although necessary precautions has to be taken for these wastes that are been generated every year which is very dangerous to our environment. There is nothing the world can do to stop this pollution or safe planet Earth. We can only reduce the effect which is unlikely difficult. Industries must keep on production process to balance demand of customers. Now are we going to stop industries from operating to safe planet Earth with is very difficult.

[arielbit]

saving the planet? LOL tell that to a hurricane or a raging volcano hahaha

we all are the planet's bitches whether you like it or not...vaccinated or not 

[semobo]

No matter what you/we do to reduce the harmful activities of mankind still the climate change is going to happen which is the evolution of this earth. Few million years ago this landscape was not similar to the current one and not actually suitable for humans to live but now we are at the right time so we are living but in the next few million years humans may not exist but still, the planet will remain.

[hornetsnest]

Just in: Those who have enriched themselves raping the planet wish to know what efforts you are making to save the planet today .After taking ownership of the atmosphere and the earth beneath it with the profits from ecological destruction and war and assets they purchased from you with the monopoly money they gave you and then debased they now wish to know what sacrifices you are willing to make to ensure they have full authority over your very existence. You didn't destroy the earth my friends. The people who are telling you that you are responsible are the ones who harmed it to culminate in the very pretext which is to be played out and is perfect due to the fact there is no no other choice
