time is just right.
Yesterday, the National Geographic documentary "Before the Flood" produced by Leonardo DiCaprio (hereinafter referred to as "Little Plum") was released simultaneously worldwide for free. Messenger of Peace on Climate Change (a very smart step by the United Nations) is a statement and a wake-up call to people who are gradually numbing people in the repeated extreme climate and disaster news every year, and it is also a response to vitriol, public opinion and doubts about his ability. The best response from the crowd.
"Paradise on Earth" on the ceiling of Xiao Lizi's childhood
- "Paradise on Earth".
I can't help but think of a study I saw two days ago that mentioned that humans and chimpanzees are the only two species on earth that will consciously engage in species-genocide massacres (chimpanzees naturally group themselves and humans in the choice game: both Homo sapiens), scientists reasoned as the killing part carried by the same ancestral gene in Africa. This may be a kind of whitewashing(?) on the genocide of the Jews by the Nazis, the genocide of the Tutsi by the Hutu in Rwanda, not to mention the reckless killing of the extinct species of the earth.
We need some global warming!
- In addition to the "nature" of killing, there is the keyword of politics.
Democracies are going deeper and deeper into dead ends, with elite thinkers and speakers emerging: people spend a long time in each election, draining themselves, draining their opponents, draining their voters, and draining their lives. It goes back and forth, decades later and still crawling on the foundations of twenty years ago. As long as the votes can finally be obtained, no matter what means are used, even if the issue of "climate change" is kidnapped and distorted. What kind of helpless experience is this - no matter how rotten apples are, you still have to pick one out of the rotten apples, Ah Q asks himself, why bother?
Think Tanks and the Actual Powers Behind the Scenes
- The modern and contemporary history of mankind has always been such a few old-fashioned big conglomerates and behind the scenes.
Most of the established industries and enterprises are ultimately monopolized by such a few key consortia and individuals. One of the most typical is the unfathomable oil industry. Reminds me of the documentary Food Inc from years ago as I shudder. The industry chain has several major behind-the-scenes sponsors.
Piers Sellers speaks of the Amazon forest, his eyes are full of light
A great piece of art!
Look, narwhal!
- hope.
When standing on the ice-cream-like layer of the Canadian Arctic Circle and seeing hordes of narwhals emerge from the water, waiting to prey on flounders, Dr. Enric Sala said what I felt: "I don't want to be in the planet without these animals."
- hard work.
One of the people who really speaks by doing on the road to solving problems is Elon Musk. There is a shot of Xiao Lizi in Elon's assembly workshop fascinated by the robotic arm. Elon has quietly released a feasible solar roof system a few days ago.
- What can we do?
For ordinary people with a non-environmental background and not involved in politics, being a doer is actually very simple:
- A little change in diet: eat less or no beef
- A little change in travel: Walk, bike, or take public transport to and from work
- Make a little change at home: Swap incandescent and fluorescent lamps for LED bulbs
- Make a little change at the polls: Vote for candidates who care about their efforts to make a difference in climate change people
