SAVE THE PLANET - Or You’ll Be Sorry

GLOBAL WARMING

We don’t inherit the planet from our parents. We borrow it from our children. Nothing makes the point better, but we pollute it and cause global warming.

ENDANGERED SPECIES

The world is full of animals. We are fascinated when we see them. Then we continue to meddle with nature. And in doing so, we destroy the concept that makes nature what it is. We destroy diversity. And when we do, we also reduce our own chances of survival. So tell me, who’s the dumb animal now?

LIFE STYLE

We create noise to shut off the inner person. That person is as one with nature. So with noise, and the speed of life, we are not. We are not the people we are supposed to be.

IT’S UP TO YOU

These are some of the dangers we face by not looking after the planet. But the real truth is the sub-title of this page is a lie. No matter what we do, the planet will survive. It is us who might not.

Frequently asked questions:

Bio-Diversity - Does it matter?

Global Warming - Is it man made?
Green Revolution - What does it mean?
Pollution - Is it really dangerous?

The following essays appear on this site:

Piggy In the Middle - Ecology is different to science in that it is holistic in nature. What do we mean by this? And does it hold a lesson for science itself?

A Closed System - The eco-message may not be sinking in how it should do. Maybe this is because the right message isn’t being sent. Maybe the message here will work.

Those Dark Satanic Factories - We are told that ideology is dead, with capitalism no longer a political tool, but a mere way of life. Is this true, or is commerce still a powerful weapon, wreaking havoc over us and the environment?

Where Have All the Animals Gone? - We are all aware of animal species becoming extinct. We want to help. But is the culprit us, and our daily routines of modern life?

Vandals of the Past? - Industrialists often claim that their damage to the environment is a process people have always indulged in. Even in the past, people caused environmental havoc. Is this true? Even if it is, can it be excused? Indeed, did it have a purpose?

Stagnant Tech - Are we living in the great technological age we believe, or is tech really a repetitive socio/political control mechanism, purposely kept primitive to guarantee a controlling system survives?

Out of the Frame - The media is said to be getting eco-friendly. Governments are becoming environmentally aware. Is this true, or are they indulging in ‘cosmetics’ to satisfy us? Further, does the media have an in-born requirement to ignore the things industry doesn’t want us to know? And if so, can we really call ourselves free?

The First Spirits - Ancient peoples believed in a spirit world running parallel to the physical. Through this, they learnt taboo, and this particularly applied to nature. Could we learn, today, a lot from ancient tribes?

Eco-Consciousness - We are told that environmental problems are down to industry, which is quite true. But could this simply be the latest expression of a morbid psychology that has been with us throughout history?
