Earth

OurOnlyParent

By V. Martin

If we’re not careful we will be orphaned and if that happens, if it hasn't already, we are all dead.  We have to protect the few wild animals we have left, above all else because if we don’t we are all dead. We need to manage our snow better because it is an opportunity to control water, saving it in its frozen state where the sun doesn’t shine. We could even pack the snow into shipping container and place them in areas that are at a high fire danger and let it slowly melt keeping the ground moist. 

I’m just brain storming, trying to come up with viable ideas to help end global warming. Some of them might not pan out but all we need is one great idea to turn things around.  Like, how we can safely phase out nuclear power plants. If we could stop thinking that nuclear power is a clean alternative to cole or oil because it’s not.  The nuclear people brag about this power being emissions free when in fact it emits heat and nuclear waste, that we have no idea what to do with.  So far we have been able to avoid a full on melt down but not Russia and Japan both are still dealing with the fallout from those melt downs. Chernobyl alone should have had us stopping in our tracks and looking for a more user friendly energy source.  Nuclear power plants use water towers to cool the nuclear rods, this in itself is an emission, heat. What do we think they do with this water?  Put right back in their a water supply and we have been doing this for 50-70 years this alone could be raising the ocean’s temperature. Water is one of the ways earth cools itself and now that we have raised its temperature the rest of the planet followed. 

Biden needs to lead the way in sustainable energy like the jet stream, we know where it is and which way they run. We need to find a way to tap into their power. Also lightening, there is so much power in lightening we need to figure out how to harness this power because it happens all over the world all the time.  Why or whose bright idea was it to make wind turbines big?  This is not necessary but a great example of how we think, America, where everything is bigger, more powerful, blah blah blah blah.

Dams have got to go!  They are preventing water to flow freely, like it was intended.  Damming doesn’t save us from floods, they help create them.  I have said this before, water is planet earth’s blood and if you block her blood flow parts are going to eventually fall off and help in global warming. There i a direct connection to the temp of the ocean and the brake down of the plastics floating in it.  I have a question; why doesn’t the military clean that mess up?  They are certainly more capable to do so, so please do.

The government needs to make our planet a priority and needs to lead the way, oh no wait, other countries are doing that, not us. We have been in bed with oil industry so long that we don’t know where it begins and we end. The rest of the world already knows what idiots we are, it’s not a secret.  Biden, I know you have the balls to put the oil industry in its place; our rear view, please do so.  The power companies also, need to be down sized moving away from nuclear power and gas powered plants as well. What we need to do is phase out power plants all together.  As individuals we need to take on more power responsibility, sustainable power eventually phasing out all those ugly dangerous wires that are live with electricity.  We never needed to do things the way we did and we need to admit that and get on with doing things differently.  

I would love to experiment with finding more sustainable power sources for which I have a few ideas.  My roommate keeps reminding me that I am a no body so no one is going to listen to me and my dumb ideas.  I am okay with that as long as my dumb ideas lead the really smart people to find the answer. If nothing else they can quickly determine if they have any value or not.  We brain storm to think up all kinds of crazy answers, no matter ho off the wall because as we do that we talk ourselves to look at the logical applications of an idea tweaking it along the way until we have a working model to experiment with.  The more I am able to follow an idea to its bitter end or is awe inspiring start the more other ideas come to light.

If we don’t start doing things differently now we are all going to die.  No one seems too interested in this idea even though it’s the only to save ourselves.  Why are we so reluctant to make changes on a global scale in order to save ourselves?  Are we waiting for the apocalypse before we try to save ourselves because if we are it will be too late.
