“A recurring theme of the report is that the ecosystem is changing.”
(From the Associated Press, “Change is seen in the Atlantic from climate, fishing” by Clarke Canfield, Associated Press Writer)
If in science there are no absolutes, because in life there are no absolutes, wouldn’t this mean that “the ecosystem is changing,” IS becoming an absolute?
The ecosystem is the world that is above and below. Simply stated, the ecosystem is the air we breathe and the ground we walk on; the water of the streams, lakes, oceans and the life that lives there, unknown to man.
Not too long ago on The Breet Report, there was a connecting the dots about the animals moving away from areas that we, the Super-predator, are found the most. The NEW bald specie of a bird; the ecosystem of NEW species found in the Indonesian mountain range; and now this, “The 2009 Ecosystem Status Report says fish populations in U.S. waters from North Carolina to Maine have moved from their traditional home grounds because of a changing environment and human activities.” (Again, from Clarke Canfield of the Associated Press)
Did you know that, the majority of the population can only visualize a radius of about five miles when trying to grasp “human activities?” It’s true. If I remember correctly, it was a shrink that came up with that in a study, but don’t quote me.
How did this happen?
We grew up. Not only did we grow up, but we forgot what it meant to have fun and learn about the things around us. Short cuts in life or toughing out the rough spots (mostly money) caused “hard feelings.”
If I’m wrong – okay – either way -
The human activities, Global Warming/Global Climate Change, has transformed (the basic terraforming) of all sustainable ecosystems that we rely on to have our each, desperately unique, lives. The human activities – terraforming – have devastated our planet now affecting everyone.
Since there is proof and more of it every day with EVERYTHING changing and species going extinct, wouldn’t it be easier to stop our terraforming? We would live better/healthier lives, and give life back to the things that sustain us.
Winging ourselves off the “crack,” the nonrenewable energy, would gear us towards a quality of life that has not been seen in a long time. Instead of taking and running out of fossil fuels (includes heating and cooling), food (plants or livestock), and the basic tools we take for granted. This has to happen – we have to stop. The Earth has warning signs – just like our body does when it is sick. (Apply what you know and then apply it somewhere else – this is called creating a “theory” or “what if…”)
Since there are themes now – in every major scientific study happening – why are we still unable to change? Do we blame our parents? Do we blame television? Do we blame advertisers? Who are we going to blame so that guilt won’t be there? Each of us has a part to play. Each of us matters – for better or worse. (“For better or Worse” means – even if you don’t like your neighbor, maybe – just maaaybe they are the next inventor for a renewable and sustainable gadget – that is distributed to everyone.) Who knows…right now the important part of this entry is ….recognizing once and for all that things have to change.
The planet is dying – translation – the ecosystems are dying. (Or are they adapting and we aren’t?)
