Milder temperatures and increased CO2 levels green the planet instead of browning it Deserts are retreating and vegetation cover has increased throughout recent decades The production of maize wheat rice and soybeans is at a record high More CO2 in the air helps plants by CO2 fertilization Our planet has seen more than 20 percent greening during the past three decades half of which is due to the action of CO2 Professor Reif wrote “The carbon dioxide our cars and power plants emit today will linger in the atmosphere for a thousand years” The average residence time of a CO2 molecule in the Earth’s atmosphere is about four to seven years Taking into account multiple exchanges leads to an estimate of a mean lifespan of 40 years Harde 2017 Rather than a problem carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is the prime nutrient for plants Indeed plants grow more strongly when CO2 concentrations are much higher than they currently are which is why commercial greenhouses add CO2 to the air The current CO2 concentration is higher than for 800000 years but it is far lower than at almost any time in the previous history of our planet Nor is CO2 a pollutant It is a colorless odorless gas that is not toxic to humans and other animals even at concentrations much higher than we are currently experiencing It is also one of the most important fuels for phytoplankton which use carbon dioxide for energy and that release oxygen Up to 75 percent of the oxygen present in the air originates in the phytoplankton photosynthetic water-splitting process Moreover during the Paleozoic and Mesozoic eras there were long periods during which the levels of CO2 were much higher than today but the temperatures were far colder We are not aware of any explanation that squares the man-made global warming theory with that fact Forecasts of droughts are also not borne out by experience For example since the now-former Australian Chief Climate Commissioner Professor Tim Flannery warned that dams would no longer fill because of a lack of rain Australia has been subjected to a series of dramatic floods and overflowing dams Governments’ naïve belief in Professor Flannery’s warnings appear to have led to policy actions and omissions that exacerbated flooding and failed to take full advantage of the rainfall when it came The most comprehensive recent study of the worldwide extent of droughts Hao et al 2014 found that for 30 years the percentage of the Earth’s land mass under drought or severe drought has been declining Though the UN Environment Program had published in 2005 a document predicting 50 million climate refugees by 2010 to date there have been no bona fide climate refugees Nor has mass migration owing to global warming been observed The one person recognized as a climate refugee had his demand rejected CITE by the Supreme Court of New Zealand He has returned to his island home where he remains safe from inundation Professor Reif wrote “In 2016 alone solar industry employment grew by 25 percent while wind jobs grew 32 percent” Growing jobs by subsidy is easy provided that one cares nothing for the far greater number of jobs destroyed by the additional taxation energy price hikes or public borrowing necessary to pay for the subsidy Several studies have shown that the creation of one “green” job results in the loss of two jobs elsewhere in the economy Despite all those subsidies solar power accounts for 09 percent and wind generation for 56 percent of total US electricity production Electricity itself is a small fraction of total energy consumption including transportation industrial processes and heating The so-called alternative energy companies survive through heavy subsidies and supportive regulations For example SunEdison received 15 billion in subsidies and loan guarantees and yet it was compelled to file for bankruptcy Solyndra is another example So-called “renewable” energy is cripplingly expensive to the customer but is often unprofitable even after massive subsidies from taxpayers Europe is suffering from political rejection of fossil fuels: energy prices have soared millions of poor people are unable to pay their energy bills and energy-intensive businesses are relocating to where energy is cheaper Theirs is not an example the US should wish to follow |

Question: What are the principal goals we must achieve in the 21st centuryIf we are to leave future generations a home that they can thrive on we must find a way to live in harmony with our planet to live sustainably and responsibly Climate change is already devastating the world we know – whether unleashing severe natural disasters on people and turning them into refugees or destroying crops and ecological habitats all over the world And yet all the nations on this planet continue to use up even more fossil fuels than they have in the past despite feeling the consequences in this very momentIt is not difficult to recognize that there is a causal relationship between the environmental crisis and the rampant consumerism that exists in our societies Why is there such an unending appetite for things We seem to have a deep-seated conviction that acquiring more material goods will make us happy Even if our own logic and experiences tell us otherwise everything around us – the advertisements television shows and movies magazines social media and so on – urges us to ignore that evidence and continue our mindless behaviorTherefore a goal of ours must be to hit pause We should pause and assess whether we really want to continue on this path Do we want to keep measuring our success in life so heavily in terms of external goods At this rate there really are not enough resources to go around so if we do not pause and reassess we will only continue to sow the seeds for violence whether to the planet or amongst ourselvesAlthough the earth’s resources have natural limits our own greed has no natural boundaries and so we must learn to limit our desire ourselves We must do this not only to protect the planet but to find a way to share the earth’s bounty fairly among all living beings A life based on pursuing things is fundamentally unsatisfying As the Buddha said chasing our desires is like drinking salty water The more we drink the thirstier we become Therefore I believe that where we find meaning in life as individuals and as society will need to change in the 21st-century We need to pause slow down and simplifyI think compassion is a quality that can be of tremendous power in our efforts to address the environmental crisis and to find deeper meaning in life When we think of our efforts to protect the environment as a way of caring for all the beings that live on this planet and of expressing our love and gratitude for all the earth has given us already then our work for change can be rooted in compassionate caring for others Compassion as a motivation is much more powerful and wholesome than fear or anger and is much more able to last in the long term It also brings more happiness in and of itselfAnother quality that I believe we must develop in order to achieve a more sustainable future is a sense of contentment This is a powerful antidote in a society where advertising constantly tells us that we do not have enough Contentment is the best form of wealth in that it gives us the highest satisfaction We can gain it simply by learning to recognize and appreciate what we already have including our own inner resources We can cultivate the perspective that what we have is enough and that we want others to have enough too A simple way to do this is to stop and reflect on how many long chains of causes and conditions needed to come together for us to simply be able to breathe Something that is completely indispensable for our existence that for our very lives we depend on having constantly available and here it is available to us at every moment with no effort on our part We can cultivate a sense of wonder and simply joy at the generosity of our planet and develop a conviction that other living beings people and animals should be able to share in thisThe environmental emergency that we face is not just a scientific issue nor is it just a political issue it is also a moral issue And therefore all of us approaching this issue have to pick up our share of the responsibility to find and implement solutions The scientific aspect of it of course is the supply of information — the creation of models and predictions and the introduction of techniques that we can use to remedy this But our share of this responsibility is to take what scientists teach us to heart so we actually transform our way of life into one that is sustainable And I think it is in this regard that religious leaders who have so much influence over their followers can assist Bluntly put the only solution is if we all work together |
