Is it right to abuse our Planet Earth? Is it good to abuse it?
One of my Facebook friends recently took a missionary trip to Honduras. He described what he saw as they went across a bridge that spanned one of the rivers. As he looked down at the river, it was filled with trash, lots of it. There was so much trash that he could barely see the water. I have read of other countries around the world with the same thing happening; trash everywhere. It is polluting their water sources. This happens all the time in areas of poverty.
I know that there are monstrous amounts of garbage congregating in areas of the Pacific and the Atlantic oceans. Look up The Great Pacific garbage patch. It is estimated to be twice the size of Texas and growing rapidly. The same thing is in the Atlantic ocean.
Think about all the things we do that pollute. Strip mining, drilling, manufacturing, poisons to get rid of perceived pests, oil and gas processing, plastics, transportation, even farming and raising domestic animals can pollute. There are so many things when you really think about it.
I’ve been following the scientific discoveries of the planet Mars exploration rovers. From the discoveries they've made, there is evidence that Mars once had oceans, lakes, and rivers. There are areas of the planet that still have frozen water, but most of the surface water is gone. Could Mars have once supported life? Maybe even humans once lived on the planet. Maybe they abused their planet to the point that it became what we see today.
Have you ever thought about what keeps the water on Earth from escaping into outer space? I have read that there is an atmospheric layer that surrounds Earth that does that. It keeps the water from escaping into the vacuum of outer space. I have also read some about that layer being depleted. I don’t know how fast or how much that is happening but it is something to think about. I think that it would be good to find out more about it and if there is something we can do to reverse the process. Could Earth become like Mars? I kind of think that it could if we humans don’t come together, quit doing the things that abuse the planet, and find ways to reverse the destructive process.
All of the developed countries of the world spend massive amounts of money to develop weapons that destroy, each country trying to outdo the others. What a waste. We are so afraid of each other that we think that our weapons will save us when things are happening to our planet that will destroy us if we ignore what is happening.
We keep asking God to fix things. Why would God want to continue helping us when we keep doing the things that work against us?
The following are some things we can do to help reverse our destructive ways:
- We can convert our carbon waste into something useful; Flash Graphene.
- Replace the fossil fuels with synthetic fuels that burn more efficiently and produce less emissions. Shuttering fossil fuel power plants may cost less than expected
- I just read this article today about plasma ignition "Can Transient Plasma Ignition Save the Internal Combustion Engine?"
- Plasma, one of the four states of mater, is a very interesting topic to study. It has many uses one of which is to get rid of our waste. INTELLIGENT PLASMA SOLUTIONS FOR WASTE MANAGEMENT
