Everything Has To Be Vegan, Completely Renewable, Biodegradable, Carbon-Neutral in the Future to Restore The Planet and Become Very Sustainable =D

Everything Has To Be Vegan, Completely Renewable, Biodegradable, Carbon-Neutral in the Future to Restore The Planet and Become Very Sustainable =D


 The planet humans live on is going through mass destruction and extinction events probably including the recent Pandemic proliferated apart the world. It’s like nature has started punishing humans for what they’ve done to the environment, animals, and ecosystems. We must find a resolution to solve the real issues of the world rather than blaming others and disputing over the problems caused by the entire world population. Each person is liable for their destructive outcome altering and polluting the environment. The economic and industrial growth and expansion have been damaging and toxic. Now people are suffering the consequences of wanting more of the products that actually exhaust natural resources and contribute to climate change. All resources that drive the economy and supply the growing population are limited and fragile. Mother nature will only try to clean up the mess and viruses may be one of the ways that the Earth gets rid of the parasitical and lethal organisms. Many ancient empires have been wiped out by plagues, natural disasters, and so forth. They weren’t sustainable, green, or ecological in nature and the Earth seems like it has the built-in mechanisms to get rid of detrimental empires and nations. Unfortunately, there aren’t many carbon-neutral or completely viable nations as of yet. There are many projects and efforts to mitigate climate change, end pollution, go green but most of these aren’t making much difference to effectively resolve the disastrous events. There is an ultimate need for collective action to deal with the real problems of the world before they end up irreversible. The Amazon is still on fire to clear more land for cattle ranching. We definitely need more forests and protect the most biodiverse ones like the Amazon. Pandemic is threatening the lives of billions of people, the economy had to convert to extremely sustainable, green, and carbon-neutral to halt the pandemic and climate change altogether. Nothing will ever be the same again because human society has plundered the natural resources to a point that altered the environment and climate excessively. Apparently, vegan and plant-based movements have been the most positive to give hope to the entire world.



 People of Planet Earth are looking for new ways to somehow halt pollution and restore the planet that started decaying. A lot of people have heeded to the evidence that the planet is in grave danger, climate change and other disasters will outstrip the world of its life-giving organisms and components in such a short time impoverishing the entire human population. The recent vegan, animal rights, climate change, green activities have been the most powerful as well as awakened world community about the real problems and complications of Planet Earth. This planet is the only celestial body that humans can live on but they’ve been destroying it to a greater extent, tampering with all life that exists here. Humans were never meant to be top of the chain in a biological planet designed to be regenerative and productive. Humans have lost their connection to nature and all living beings for them to drive the entire planet into cataclysmic events only in a few centuries after the industrial revolution. Advanced societies tend to overuse and alter their natural environment for the sake of technological and industrial growth but the radically advanced nations and communities would never allow any type of environmental and resource depletion and deficiency. Therefore, entire civilization is doomed to adjust their productions and consumption to restore the environment and the planet while there is still time. So many people have been working on inventing new vegan, environmentally-friendly, biodegradable products, services, and technologies so the planet can have the chance to regenerate itself. This is definitely a global phenomenon and each nation should hire many scientists, researchers, and experts to put an end to global decline once and for all. If climate change alone devastates the planet’s natural resources, water reserves, farms that supply the essential products and life to each person, all nations even the most developed ones will fall probably succumbing to extraterrestrial presence established around the world clandestinely. Each person of the world is being called by angelic powers overseeing Planet Earth for them to act upon the ultimate threats that are debilitating the entire human population. Higher powers that help and guide the human race and all life aren’t able to fix the problems and instability caused by the human population. Humans must learn from their mistakes and rectify their harmful fabrications and output. Human beings have been perfectly designed and created to become an advanced and sustainable community in the universe if they can get out of serious plights with cooperation and awareness. Planet has been depleting at a rapid rate and this will only generate massive food, water, and resource shortages that can devastate all nations brutally. 


 Humans can be the green gardeners and saviors of Planet Earth, all productions can convert to completely plant-based, vegan, biodegradable without any or little carbon emissions. The excess Co2 in the atmosphere is warming up the globe each day, most developed nations are the biggest contributors to global warming that triggered the latest mass extinctions in every continent. Coral reefs are bleaching worldwide and they’re the largest organisms that house and feed many ocean species. Oceans are heating up, as a result, hurricanes, typhoons, and cyclones are getting bigger and more powerful. If the biodiversity and largest forests, coral reefs, and many other habitats collapse, this will be the end of mankind as well. Anything that’s complete plant-based will decompose and there are certain plastic alternatives that are plant-based. More companies are supposed to switch to plastic alternatives to stop plastic pollution in oceans and landfills. Microplastics are circling in tap water, drinking water, and all types of water sources, they’re also becoming nano plastics which are harder to capture and get rid of. People drink a very high amount of microplastics that cause disease, inflammation, mental illness, and many other syndromes. Microplastics aren’t only produced by single-use plastics, all types of plastics contribute to plastic pollution because people use products made of plastics only a few times and dump them. Global recovery begins with individual knowledge and awareness. When people become aware of what’s going on, they boycott toxic and cruel products so corporations change their productions and business methods. There is nothing wrong about asserting the ultimate problems to raise awareness for people to act upon. In 2017, a garbage patch the size of Mexico was found in the Pacific Ocean. It is estimated to be upwards of a million square miles in size. While the patch contains more obvious examples of litter (plastic bottles, cans, and bags), tiny microplastics are nearly impossible to clean up. 


 Biodegradation is the breakdown of organic matter by microorganisms, such as bacteria and fungi. Compost is organic matter that has been decomposed in a process called composting. This process recycles various organic materials otherwise regarded as waste products and produces a soil conditioner (the compost). Compost is rich in nutrients. It is used, for example, in gardens, landscaping, horticulture, urban agriculture, and organic farming. The compost itself is beneficial for the land in many ways, including as a soil conditioner, a fertilizer, addition of vital humus or humic acids, and as a natural pesticide for soil. Compost is useful for erosion control, land and stream reclamation, wetland construction, and as landfill cover. Decomposition is the process by which dead organic substances are broken down into simpler organic or inorganic matter such as carbon dioxide, water, simple sugars, and mineral salts. The process is a part of the nutrient cycle and is essential for recycling the finite matter that occupies physical space in the biosphere. Bodies of living organisms begin to decompose shortly after death. Animals, such as worms, also help decompose organic materials. Organisms that do this are known as decomposers. Unfortunately, some types of plastics never biodegrade nor decompose and kill marine life, birds, and all kinds of other species. All types of plastics including the single-use plastics are doomed to be replaced with biodegradable, plant-based, and newer alternatives that are the best for the environment. Some companies are resisting environmentally-safe alternatives including biodegradable and plant-based plastics altogether. Transformation to an eco-friendly, carbon-neutral, and absolutely green economy and infrastructure should be mandatory for a planet jeopardized by drastic pollution levels, climate change, and so forth. Sustainable agriculture is farming in sustainable ways, which means meeting society's present food and textile needs, without compromising the ability for current or future generations to meet their needs. It can be based on an understanding of ecosystem services. There are many methods to increase the sustainability of agriculture. When developing agriculture within sustainable food systems, it is important to develop flexible business processes and farming practices. 

 

 Agriculture has an enormous environmental footprint, playing an outsized role in causing climate change, water scarcity, land degradation, deforestation, and other processes; it is simultaneously causing environmental changes and being impacted by these changes. Developing sustainable food systems contributes to the sustainability of the human population. For example, one of the best ways to mitigate climate change is to create sustainable food systems based on sustainable agriculture. Sustainable agriculture provides a potential solution to enable agricultural systems to feed a growing population within the changing environmental conditions. Meat, dairy, and oil industries are some of the biggest contributors to climate change. Billions of animals are still being slaughtered to feed the growing human population in a time where there is a great abundance of vegan, organic foods, products, and fresh produce. The conversion to sustainable productions and consumer awareness should be global. Green permaculture farming methods can sequester excess carbon in the soil, provide food and products to green communities that will become more popular in the near future. Big cities are being decimated by the pandemic that may not be eradicated anytime soon. New viruses will emerge out of factory farms and the most polluted areas hereupon. It’s best to leave big cities that emit the most greenhouse gases and start building complete green communities and cities that are powered by renewable energies. These new ecological centers will be the most suitable places for people to live and they have to be assembled more inland because sea levels will eventually rise to submerge most of the coastal towns and cities. There are some green, carbon-neutral, waste-free, and permaculture city designs in development and people will be able to move or invest there once they’re established. More people and companies should consider investing and venturing into green projects and city developments since most of society is tired of polluted, expensive, crowded cities congested with traffic and crowds. Large cities and industrial areas nearby them will be uninhabitable in the near future, you can already see the signs of this via this pandemic and mandatory lockdowns. Largest industrial areas coexist with the largest cities of the world, they both emit the most greenhouse gases, consume the most toxic and plastic-filled products, generate the most rubbish, contamination plus diseases that turn into plagues and epidemics. Humans weren’t biologically designed to live in very crowded, congested regions but the job markets attracted more people to bigger cities over the years. A lot of people are leaving the world’s biggest cities after the pandemic. Small cities and green communities are literally more livable and clean, the move to smaller and medium-sized cities and communities will create newer jobs that will be more eco-conscious than before. To attain a carbon-neutral globe will not be easy but it can be accomplished with collective action once sustainable farming, productions, renewable energies, technologies become the norm worldwide. Carbon farming is a name for a variety of agricultural methods aimed at sequestering atmospheric carbon into the soil and in crop roots, wood, and leaves. Increasing soil's carbon content can aid plant growth, increase soil organic matter (improving agricultural yield), improve soil water retention capacity, and reduce fertilizer use (and the accompanying emissions of greenhouse gas nitrous oxide (N2O). As of 2016, variants of carbon farming reached hundreds of millions of hectares globally, of the nearly 5 billion hectares (1.2×1010 acres) of world farmland. Soils can contain up to five percent carbon by weight, including decomposing plant and animal matter and biochar. Potential sequestration alternatives to carbon farming include scrubbing CO2 from the air with machines (direct air capture); fertilizing the oceans to prompt algal blooms that after death carry carbon to the sea bottom; storing the carbon dioxide emitted by electricity generation; and crushing and spreading types of rock such as basalt that absorb atmospheric carbon. Land management techniques that can be combined with farming include planting/restoring forests, burying biochar produced by anaerobically converted biomass, and restoring wetlands. (Coal beds are the remains of marshes and peatlands. 


 Regenerative agriculture is a conservation and rehabilitation approach to food and farming systems. It focuses on topsoil regeneration, increasing biodiversity, improving the water cycle, enhancing ecosystem services, supporting biosequestration, increasing resilience to climate change, and strengthening the health and vitality of farm soil. Practices include recycling as much farm waste as possible and adding composted material from sources outside the farm. Regenerative agriculture on small farms and gardens is often based on philosophies like permaculture, agroecology, agroforestry, restoration ecology, keyline design, and holistic management. Large farms tend to be less philosophy driven and often use "no-till" and/or "reduced till" practices. On a regenerative farm, yield should increase over time. As the topsoil deepens, production may increase and fewer external compost inputs are required. The actual output is dependent on the nutritional value of the composting materials and the structure and content of the soil. Permaculture is a set of design principles centered on whole systems thinking, simulating, or directly utilizing the patterns and resilient features observed in natural ecosystems. It uses these principles in a growing number of fields from regenerative agriculture, rewilding, and community resilience. It originally meant "permanent agriculture", but was expanded to stand also for "permanent culture". It has many branches including ecological design, ecological engineering, regenerative design, environmental design, and construction. Permaculture also includes integrated water resources management that develops sustainable architecture, and regenerative and self-maintained habitat and agricultural systems modeled from natural ecosystems. These methods are crucial to restore the planet and it can be initiated individually to benefit the whole. People are meant to be gardeners of Planet Earth who enrich and enhance ecosystems and the entire biosphere humans are ingrained into biologically and physically. The augmentation to an advanced society is beginning with the introduction of vegan, cruelty-free, productive mindsets as well as more sustainable and renewable production methods compared to current industries that aren’t environmentally-friendly. Even the biggest business of oil and gas will be obsolete in the near future when electricity generation and transportation industry are modified as absolutely green, renewable, and carbon-neutral. Some cities and nations made great progress towards going green and they’re powered only by renewable energies. Going completely green isn’t all about industry and business, agriculture plays a big part in carbon emissions also deforestation. Living in a very sustainable, green planet is crucial for the future of humanity. The planet can follow the fate of Mars where there are signs of civilization in its ancient past. Forcing the rich biodiversity and many different species to go extinct will also pave the expressway for humans to go extinct or try to survive in an apocalyptic environment. Carbon neutrality, or having a net-zero carbon footprint, refers to achieving net-zero carbon dioxide emissions by balancing carbon emissions with carbon removal (often through carbon offsetting) or simply eliminating carbon emissions altogether (the transition to the "post-carbon economy"). It is used in the context of carbon dioxide-releasing processes associated with transportation, energy production, agriculture, and industrial processes. Carbon-neutral status can be achieved in two ways:

  • Balancing carbon dioxide emissions with carbon removal beyond natural processes, often through carbon offsetting, or the process of removing or sequestering carbon dioxide from the atmosphere to make up for emissions elsewhere. Some carbon-neutral fuels work in much the same way by being made from carbon dioxide themselves, either natural or man-made, despite producing carbon emissions as well. Much more extreme forms of carbon dioxide removal may also be used.

  • Reducing carbon emissions (low-carbon economy) through changing energy sources and industrial processes. Shifting towards the use of renewable energy (e.g. wind and solar power) has shown the reduction of carbon dioxide emissions. Although both renewable and non-renewable energy both produce carbon emissions, renewable energy has a lesser to almost zero carbon emissions. which produces much fewer carbon emissions compared to fossil fuels. Making changes to current industrial and agricultural processes to reduce carbon emissions (for example, diet changes to livestock such as cattle can potentially reduce methane production by 40%. Carbon projects and emissions trading are often used to reduce carbon emissions, and carbon dioxide can even sometimes be prevented from entering the atmosphere entirely (such as by carbon scrubbing).

 The race to extreme sustainability and to build the greenest, cleanest planet ever is starting. Each nation is going to compete with each other over more significant goals rather than economic growth, technological achievements, and trade. Most of the dumped tech devices and products aren’t recyclable and they only amplify landfills. Discarded tech contains a tremendous amount of rare and precious metals that end up in landfills and junk piles. Plastic pollution is already a severe problem and there is tech pollution now. There are various tech devices that come out each year with little improvements and tweaks force dumping older versions of them. It’s apparent that the path to industrial and technological growth and expansion is definitely the most destructive way for civilization to move forward. What if most developed, industrial nations become unlivable in the future and carbon-negative countries show up as the only places where people can survive? Human civilization must be transformed profoundly before the apocalypse impends. People will need products and services forever but the destructive methods of production and commerce should be discontinued to give the opportunity to planet-friendly patterns.
