Hello community!
On this day I’m gonna share to you some of my reflections about climate change.
You know it’s already been told and discussed everywhere and every time there are calamities happening around the globe.
But what I’m about to share to you are some of my insights on this matter.
TIME
[From B.C. to A.D. to 21st Century]
Comparing the eras of before and now, I can say that change is not just a six letter word. I mean we all felt it. Change makes us who we are today and so does with climate. It evolves constantly with time along with probably age of the planet earth. We are getting older and time, “as a god of infinity”, perhaps sets limits and boundaries to our world as it’s getting older and older. Climate change is a natural process relative with time.
INHABITANTS
Humans in the modern times
Aeon is what I used to describe how humans rule the world. Primitive people had simple living using primitive tools to carry on with life. But as civilizations advanced more sophisticated style of living is built. Cultures were established different from each other and completely unique with one another. More advanced tools were made using what the nature had to offer in those times. From this point of reference, I could say climate before is far more different than today.
We grow with climate and climate evolves with us. As time goes on, humans populate the earth and we give off considerable amount of carbons released to the atmosphere resulting to the rise of temperature. You see it’s give and take. We are one direct contributor to this change thus we are the culprit and by then the victims of our own humanity. A sad reality but this is how it should be. After all we are all forms of matter in this universe and how small we are in the view of galaxy, interconnectivity happens. What happened before would always affect the kind of humanity we are today.
ENVIRONMENT
Gloomy Skies means Bad Weather
If you believed that there were a community of dinosaurs that lived long before then you could tell that the earth’s environment is never been the same. Different species lived and died with the kind of climate that they had in that period of time. They mingled with the nature just like we are doing today. But there is a great difference. I’m sure those times were more natural compared to how humans make use of the natural environment.
Animal species didn’t destroy mountains or forests. They didn’t pollute the waters and seas. They didn’t build tall buildings in the middle of the dessert or green fields. They didn’t drove cars or built machines and factories that discharge gases unnatural for the atmosphere. Humans did this and we are still doing it now.
The environment that we are now living with is unlikely the same than it did millions of years ago. It is also changing just like the climate. Well I could say we are just making it unnatural anymore resulting to a rapid and devastating climate change. It could have been a more natural climate change if not for the actions that humans made to the environment.
DESTINATION
Favorite Destination during Weekend
Just like the picture above we like to travel to a destination, a spot we liked to go.
But who could say and explain how this Earth happened? Well, several theories have been discussed. Many stories have been told. Still the question remains unanswered. No one is born before time and no one dies ahead of time. Time directs everything.
What happened to earth and it’s inhabitants long time ago is already written in the book of time. What happened to earth during the start of humanity is also written in the book of time. What happens now is recorded in the book of time. What happens later depends on the events that occurred before.
What I mean for this is that we are going to a certain destination of time that no one knows how and when it would happen. The climate change is just a part of the whole process of our evolving mother Earth. This planet is just reacting to the events around it’s crust, mantle and core. We are just lodgers in here. We can try owning it but it never will be our own property. It has a mind of its own and it’s very complex. We are just here to adapt and live with how it behaves.
Climate change can never be stopped but we can slow it down. Certain biological processes are just there to be made to make some or great positive things happen before it’s too late. Plant trees, reduce carbon emissions, and no more utilization of fossil fuels. How can we do these depends on us. Great sacrifices and humility must prevail. The future generations depends on this generation.
How I wish I could travel to a certain paradox of time where humans don’t need to destroy its own planet just to have a comfortable life and be able to go back and tell the world it can be possible. But this is now our reality. It cannot be undone.
