So - there are other environmental problems that we need to address other than just Climate Change. I mean - of course it's still very important, but there are also other things we need to worry about. Such as Deforestation. Millions of trees are being cut down and it's affecting so many variables. We're pushing animals out of their habitats and this is causing them to intrude on other habitats and affecting the animals that live there - causing a food shortage for those native animals. It's slowly causing species to become endangered and then extinction.
Sure, people are trying to fix this issue and planting millions of trees but how much help can that be when it takes decades for trees to grow and replace the ones that are being cut down and by then millions of more trees will be cut down and then what? Start that process all over again? And sure conservations are great and they do help but they can other do so much you know?
I think that as humans -we take advantage of so much. We don't realize this because it's the only kind of lifestyle we know of. We weren't taught any differently. The reason we have a hard time actually coming to terms with what we are doing is because we don't want to take the blame and leave the comforts of the life that were are living. I truly believe that the human race is selfish. Of course there are individuals who are trying everything in their power to give back and actually help environmental issues but sometimes I think that maybe we're already too late.
I completely that agree that the human race is selfish, however shouldn't we be? We are the most powerful race and important while also being the most developed race. Once we become more developed than we already are I believe that we will start to figure out ways to give back to the earth. As for now us a race we need to keep getting stronger and smarter and in the future we can help the others. I believe it is not too late to help.
ReplyDeleteI also agree that humans are extremely selfish. We don't think twice when we have to relocate thousands of species from their homes for our own personal gain. We have no one else to blame but ourselves and I think that unless drastic change happens very soon then it is too late to help our planet.
ReplyDeleteI agree that the planet is dying from humans being selfish and could go on to call us needy. We take and take from the Earth and need to find an efficient way to give back and quickly too.
ReplyDeleteI completely agree with the point you made on how the human race is selfish. People need to change what they are doing, but they won't do it because no one thinks about the future, they only think about the current life they are living. Not many people think of the generations to come and the lives they will be living. People need to start considering that we can't live without the earth, and the things on it. We need all of the things in the environment, they are part of how we live our everyday lives. Everyone needs to think of the actions that they are taking regarding trash, pollution, etc. and make a change.
ReplyDeleteI totally agree with you that the deforestation is a big problem and that wee need to make a change. Scientist are proving that a lot of man made problems are effecting our environment and with chopping these trees down sure makes it a lot worst. And on top of people damaging these tress there are forest fires happening all of the world and that's not making it any better.
ReplyDeleteI think the way people are living isnt the best as in people dont care about the future because they wont be living in it when the problems start to occur that we are talking about right now. Most of the world understands the circumstances of how we are living our lives and the impact on that. I think in general in this time people dont care, people may say it is a problem and want to fix it but many people will sit by and do nothing. So i dont think the human race is selfish just this is the world we live in and how we are raised. Because we are a capitalist country and from that it induces the need for more and people to want to get more. The human race wasnt always like that. for example take the native americans before it was found by the west, they lived with nature. Along with this many small tribes around the world where they practice living with nature.
ReplyDeleteI think most scientists that come back with information regarding climate change are paid by the government to come back with that information. if they don't come back with any information then they don't get paid. this is one of the reasons I am skeptical about climate change being so bad. I really think that ifs we didn't do anything we would be fine for awhile.
