Maybe we can’t save the earth and we can’t save ourselves

It did tell the current situation facing all mankind, and criticized those in power from the perspective of a scientist. But development itself is irreversible, and politicians are not all just for more power. Development itself has formed an infinite loop with survival. People live for a hundred years, and there is no need to pay for the billions of years of the earth’s past and future with their own actions.

A hundred years ago, we thought that internal combustion engines that didn’t eat grass and shit were clean. Half a century ago we thought that hydropower was clean. Thirty years ago we thought that wind power was clean. But now we find that fossil energy is almost exhausted. Hydroelectric power stations have caused the ecosystem to fall apart. Wind power stations have brought about a large number of bird deaths and local climate changes. The GHG produced by solar energy in the production of monocrystalline silicon even exceeds that of thermal power! Therefore, the development of science is still to take one step at a time. What we can do is to take back the legs in time when we discover that we have made a mistake! In the Stone Age and the Atomic Age, we are all changing the earth for survival. We come and go between the two ages like a pendulum, just not to turn drug use into drinking poison.

A hundred years later, people, dust returns to dust

After millions of years, mankind, the dust will return to the dust

The 11th Hour quotes

  • James Hillman: But even to think that we are separated from Nature is somehow a thinking disorder. You cannot be separated from Nature. Why we think that way is the interesting thing.

  • Sen. James Inhofe: Could it be that man-made global warming is the greatest hoax ever perpetrated on the American people?

    Stephen Hawking: One of the most serious consequences of our actions is global warming brought about by rising levels of carbon dioxide from the burning of fossil fuels. The danger is that the temperature increase might become self-sustaining if it has not done so already.
