Posts stating faith in science is the same as faith in religion———-well science has NOTHING to with faith in anything–but thanks for the attempt to muddy the waters. Religions are BS mind control at best and just another con game perpetuated by those who profit from the con.

I was thinking about an agreement between governments to legally require recycling, but I can see now that would take a long time. Meanwhile, the growing volunteer movemnent is doing the actual work, so I guess that’s the best I can do as an individual. Thanks again.

You’ll need to do the research. There are too many to simply list. Google terms like ‘sustainability’ and ‘zero waste’, as well as ‘green building’. Careful, though — there are a lot of greenwashers out there, and you’ll have to navigate around them to find the real non-profits making the effort. Unfortunately their pockets are not as deep as those of the corporate greenwashers. Pick one and make a difference. Volunteer.

Thankyou, greenman. I’m hoping for an emergency Worldwide campaign to immediartly begin safe recycling of all trash, and peaceful reduction of the human population, but I don’t know who to contact. Do you know who and what organizations might be able to get it started?

JTR — I’m as caught in the plight of ‘the human condition’ as anyone else. Certainly we must all do our part as citizens to reduce the population voluntarily. We must recycle. We must stop polluting. We must stop creating stuff that can’t be recycled or reused. Otherwise, we are nothing but vermin living in our own filth. I’d like to believe humans are somehow special, but considering what we’ve done to our planet, maybe not so much.

To put ‘hope’ in grand scientific ‘discoveries’ or last-minute ‘breakthroughs’, however, is equivalent to joining a cargo cult. It’s wishful thinking and nonsensical.

Life in a fully diverse and balanced ecosystem is a buffered series of small adversities, depending on the perspective of the organism in question. When grand technical ‘solutions’ are bestowed that promote the survival of one organism out of balance over others, all those small adversities that would have happened little-by-little get temporally bunched together in a single delayed large catastrophe, often causing overall detrimental repercussions across multiple species that far exceed the small buffered adversities of the original species in question.

If we survive, hopefully, we’ll learn that one lesson: faith in science is no better than faith in religion.

There is no safe way of releasing methane fuel from methane ice. Read the novel “The Swarm” by Frank Schaetzing – sci-fi thriller with solid grounding in science.

Greenman,

Family planning is not violent or immoral. Don’t you think all women should have the right to decide if and when to conceive and birth their children? If so, most would choose no more than 1, 2 or 3, which would reduce the human population down to a number the biosphere could easily support. Then, the economy would stabilize and all human-generated waste products and materials could be safely recycled. Why don’t you answer my questions?
