So what shall we do? Firstly, we must wake up to the seriousness of our plight, so that someaction can be taken to mitigate the situation. A reduction in population in emerging parts ofthe world is essential. The environment is being ravaged as governments desperately try tomeet the needs of their people in countries such as India, China and Brazil. There must be arapid end to the destruction of natural habitats all over the world which are key toplanetary climate and chemistry. There should be a cessation of fossil fuel consumption. Inaddition, we need to turn back the technological clocks in hopes of reverting to a state ofbeing on the Earth that’s more amenable to symbiosis rather than parasitism. We mustabandon plans to sustain energy consumption levels through developing wind farms - theytake up too much precious land. Instead, we must embrace nuclear energy because itproduces fewer carbon dioxide emissions than fossil fuels do.

AN EXAMPLE

● A reduction in population in emerging parts of the world is essential● There must be a rapid end to the destruction of natural habitats all over the world

which are key to planetary climate and chemistry● There should be a cessation of fossil fuel consumption.● In addition, we need to turn back the technological clocks in hopes of reverting to a

state of being on the Earth that’s more amenable to symbiosis rather than parasitism● We must abandon plans to sustain energy consumption levels through developing wind

farms - they take up too much precious land. Instead, we must embrace nuclear energybecause it produces fewer carbon dioxide emissions than fossil fuels do.

SHORTEN IT!

● Reduce population in developing nations● End the destruction of natural habitats● Cease fossil fuel consumption● Turn back the technological clocks● Embrace nuclear energy
