Humans Are Not Capable Of Harming Mother Earth

I keep hearing, day in and day out that we are harming mother Earth.

Please, let me know how.

Climate change this, climate change that.

Let me tell you something, Earth has been through alot more crap than what humans have ever brought.
The worst we have done is made it slightly uncomfortable for our living conditions then what we are use to.

People have been dumbed down with electricity and the internet.
We are merely fleas on this planet. What we do now will not affect the planet that we live on.

Just our comfort level.

Think about it, millions of years ago, when dinosaurs roamed the Earth, how many large animals like a brontosaurs farted or pissed.

Think those numbers would be greater than what humans produce every year.

Than, supposedly, an asteroid hit, causing the rise of mammals , and eventually humans, virtually wiping out those large beast, the dinosaurs.

Did the Earth, our mother Earth perish?

No.

She keeps rolling along until in a few billion years, our sun expanding, will consume her.

Climate change is nothing. The only thing it affects are the people who are bitching about their comfort levels.

Well, that any those people making money off off all this crap.

Discuss amongst yourselves.................

Only 4 F bombs in 8 minutes. You'll dig it.

Isn't the point rather that we can hurt ourselves?

I'm sure this rock will be here long after we perish.

a reply to: Groot

Yeah who cares about loss of habitat or if a few species go extinct due to human behavior anyways!

It's not like we share the planet with other living organisms. They shoulda been smart enough not to mess with our planet!

We have no responsibilities to our Earth, I hear ya OP!

a reply to: Groot

You're right. I mean, what effect could we ever have on the Earth..

Just our comfort level.

NO, not just our ''comfort level'',
Our ''survival level''. This is what people are concerned about, not whether or not the Earth undergoes a drastic swing in this or that direction. Of course it is evident that the planet as an ecosystem fluctuates and morphs through the ages and still maintains itself as a bed of life. But it is not that aspect of Earth that is concerning, only whether or not it is habitable to human civilization. That is the question that needs answering.

It's not Mother Earth I'm worried about.

I don't want to breathe dirty air, drink poisoned water, or eat the s# we call food.

Exactly ! LOL !!!!!

Eventually the Earth will shake us off like a bad cold. Humans are essentially a virus to the planet that had run rampant and multiplied beyond sustainability. The Earth will be here long after we as a species has ceased to exist and another dominant species will rise to take our place. Maybe the dinosaurs will get another day in court!

This you should be worried about Mother Earth because Mother earth provided all those clean stuff before. The Lake used to be drinkable. It is called pollution and industrialization. Also the bio weapons cause by USA. Rivers are no longer drinkable. If the people simply stop using sewage, creating dirty junk, and actually let winter do its thing we would have clean water for life. Salting the road man.

So you're saying we need to get rid of the sun.

*nods*

Okay.

Pretty sure in another thread we discussed the merits of nuking the sun and found them to be worthy.

a reply to: AugustusMasonicus

I remember.

Let me make some calls.

I'll get this started.

Yes sir, the point is saving ourselves. Not the Earth, as many claim.

But you know what?

We made it through the last ice age bigger and better than ever.

So who is to say we will not come out on top again?

Yeah, that's nothing.

At least throw a few nuclear bombs in there , still, you have nothing .

LOL !

You do understand it is about our comfort level, right?

Losing electricity?

What do you think would happen.

That is not basic survival.

Fleas, ticks, even smaller microorganisms are puny compared to the hosts that they are able to debilitate and kill.

Climate change is a natural part of Solar and Earth cycles; multiple Ice Ages & multiple warming periods. This is a fact, however, we can not discount man's supplemental effects to not only weather patterns, but also to Earth's entire biome.

We can not deny the massive amounts of pollutants that we are spreading throughout the soil, dumping into the water, and releasing into the air. We can not ignore the natural landscapes and habitats that we have destroyed. We can not ignore the animals that we have personally pushed into annihilation and extinction, and the many more who teeter on the brink. We can not deny the inhumanity, war, murder, violence, hate, rape, subjugation, and poverty faced by our fellow humans.

When we look deeply into the workings of Earth-based activity, we discover that each and every thing adds to an intricate balance of cause-and-effect. We may be comparable to fleas, but we are certainly having a detrimental effect on the health of this beautiful planet.

Okay.

Never said that. LOL !

Unless you are some sort of vampire or immortal and plan on living that long, then good luck !

Maybe you need to take a look at Chernobyl and the nature around there after the nuclear meltdown.

Humanity has little affect on it. It recovers and moves on.

I agree !

Thinking we are mere habitants on this planet and maybe another species will come along who are not near as whiny and can adapt to changes in the environment alot better.
