Industrial Society is speeding up the demise of ecosystems by providing jobs to all - education to all.
After Industrial Revolution work turned into extra work, over work, unnecessary work, destructive work.
Most of the people living in cities are engaged in the destructive cycle of
production of consumer goods, selling of consumer goods, buying of
consumer goods.This planet is very small - just 40,000 km in
circumference. Today 50% of world population is living in cities - and
this percentage is increasing day by day.
Provide jobs to all?
Provide education to all? - oh yes, provide jobs/education to all and
very soon the human species will go out of existence.
The entire education system is promoting consumerism, extra work, over work, unnecessary work, destructive work.
People who are getting education in technology/ engineering… are engaged in production of consumer goods.
People who are getting education in the fields of business, finance, MBA…are engaged in selling of consumer goods.
Most of the people getting education in Arts subjects are also engaged in
selling of consumer goods and services - sales and marketing jobs.
If we destroy ecosystems for food, clothing, shelter, health-care the ecosystems will last longer. If we destroy ecosystems for consumer goods in addition to food, clothing, shelter, health-care the ecosystems will finish much sooner.
Industrial Society has destroyed necessary things [animals, trees, air, water,land] for making unnecessary things [consumer goods].
By providing jobs to all - education to all, Industrial Society is destroying the very things that created and sustained all life on earth for millions of years.
Industrial Society is a curse on this planet.
What would happen to your home if 1000 people entered and started doing work continuously - 24 X 7 - picking up things already lying in the house, breaking them up and making new things out of them without stopping?
A similar thing is happening to the planet - 6.8 billion people
continuously engaging in work - destroying the ecosystems moment by
moment.
Man started destroying “extra” after Industrial Revolution. This “extra”
destruction has risen exponentially in the last 50 years.
Work has turned into overwork, unnecessary work, destructive work. People who are working to provide food, clothing, shelter and healthcare are doing work - rest of the population is engaged in overwork, unnecessary work, destructive work.
Ecosystems are not consumer goods that can be manufactured / created by MultiNational Corporations. Who can undo the damage that has been done to ecosystems by billions of people over a period of 200 - 250 years?
Industrial Society has killed billions of acres of fertile soil by covering it with cement and concrete.This is insanity of the highest degree - insanity raised to the power of infinity.We
have got a very small planet. On this small planet two-thirds of
surface area is water. Only one-third is land - and this includes vast
areas of land that are not fertile - deserts, rocky
mountains, ice/ glaciers. There is very little surface area on
earth which is fertile. It is this fertile soil that has produced food
for millions of species that have lived on land for millions of years. Killing billions of acres of fertile soil is insanity of the highest degree - insanity raised to the power of infinity.The punishment is coming - very soon - punishment of the highest degree - punishment raised to the power of infinity.
“Green Industry”, “Green Technology”, “Green Development”.
These are contradictory terms – these are oxymorons.
Industrialization can never be green – it is impossible.
Industry produces three kinds of waste - solid, liquid and gaseous.
There are only three places on earth where this waste can go - air, water, land.
There is no fourth place on earth where Industrial waste can go.
Industrial Society has produced billions of tonnes of solid, liquid and gaseous waste - billions of tonnes of metal waste, chemical waste, plastic waste, eWaste, nuclear waste…
This waste has killed, polluted and poisoned rivers, lakes, oceans, underground water, the soil/ land, the air/ sky.
Industrialization can never be green – it is impossible.
Governments and Law Enforcement Agencies have labelled a few Environmentalists as EcoTerrorists.
What are the charges against Environmental Activists? - Destruction of property? - endangering human life?
The Military Industrial Complex is doing much more damage to property -
it is going around carpet bombing entire countries - flattening entire
countries. The Military Industrial Complex is endangering much more
human life - it is actually killing - killing millions in War/ Violence
Who is the real Terrorist? - Environmentalists or Industrial Society?
The human race has been destroying/ killing animals, trees, air,
water, land and people from the very beginning of civilization. Science and Technology has increased this destructive capacity millions of times.
Every citizen of Industrial Society is using hundreds/ thousands of consumer goods.
Every consumer good is made by killing animals, trees, air, water and land - directly or indirectly. [ more killing of nature takes place when consumer goods are used and discarded]
The per capita killing of animals, trees, air, water and land in
Industrial Society is hundreds of times/ thousands of times greater
than that of pre-industrial society.
Every citizen of Industrial Society is a serial killer - serial killer of animals, trees, air, water and land.
Those who produce consumer goods are killers.
Those who sell consumer goods are killers.
Those who buy consumer goods are killers.
Before Industrialization humans killed Environment primarily for Food, Clothing & Shelter. After industrialization humans are killing environment for Food, Clothing & Shelter plus [thousands of unnecessary] Consumer Goods.
Industrial Society is destroying necessary things[Animals, Trees, Air, Water and Land] for making unnecessary things[Consumer Goods].
The Military Industrial Complex/ Industrial Society
has killed millions of people in War/ Violence. It has decimated all
plant and animal species. It has destroyed all ecosystems. It has
polluted and poisoned the Sky, Land and Oceans. It has raped and
plundered “Mother Earth” in the name of Progress and Development.
The crimes of Industrial Society are millions of times greater than the crimes of Environmentalists.
Comparing the crimes of Environmentalists with the crimes of Industrial Society is like comparing the Lamp with the Sun.
The entire Industrial Society is a Terrorist.
Science and Technology is the Terrorist.
Military Industrial Complex is the Terrorist.
Culture of Consumerism - culture of making, buying and selling is
the Terrorist. Consumerism kills ecosystems - Consumerism is the
biggest act of violence against nature.
We have created a society that rapes, plunders and exploits “Mother Earth” 365 days of the year - and then celebrates Earth Day.
When someone destroys the home of a human being it is considered a crime and the accused is sent to prison.
When the human species collectively destroys the homes [ecosystems] of millions of other species it is called Progress, Growth, Development.
The police, the law, the judiciary are trying to catch a few criminals - they do not realize the entire Industrial Society is criminal.
Psychologists and Psychiatrists are trying to classify a few people as abnormal - they do not realize the entire Industrial Society is abnormal.
What is most amazing about the issue of sustainability is the fact that modern society is trying to sustain the unsustainable - it is trying to sustain a consumerist system which has existed for almost zero percent of human existence on earth. The present consumerist lifestyle has existed for about 100 years. If we com…pare this with the total duration of human existence on earth it comes to almost zero percent.
The two things that have destroyed Environment are - Overpopulation and Overconsumerism.
Science, Technology and Industrialization are responsible for both these problems. World population was less than 1 billion in the year 1800. Nature had its way of controlling population through disease and death caused by bacteria and virus. When man made medicines/ antibiotics he created disaster - population increased very rapidly. In the absence of “Industrial Agriculture” the feeding capacity of soil would have kept population under control. If Industrial Revolution had not happened, environmental destruction due to production of consumer goods would not exist. In the absence of Science, Technology and “Industrial Revolution” we would not be facing the two problems that have caused destruction of ecosystems - overpopulation and overconsumerism.
If “Industrial Revolution” had not happened what would be the scenario today?
The feeding capacity of soil would have kept population under control.
Diseases caused by virus and bacteria would have kept population under control.
Maybe I would’nt be existing today - and billions of others may not have existed - but millions/ billions of humans would exist [just like they existed before Industrialization]
Most ecosystems would be hundreds of times/ thousands of times in better shape than today.
Millions of other species that have been decimated by Industrial Society would be existing in very healthy numbers - their population levels thousands of times greater than what they are now.
Providing food, clothing, shelter and healthcare is good. But did “Industrial Society” stop at that?
Do we have an Industrial Society that only provides food, clothing, shelter and healthcare to people?
No - the jokers tried to sell hundreds of consumer goods to all citizens of Industrial Society. They tried to make all people consumerists.
Industrial Society started destroying ecosystems for “consumer goods” in addition to destroying them for food, clothing and shelter.
You cannot do this on a small planet that is just 40,000 km in circumference. If you live this way you end up destroying all ecosystems - you end up decimating all other species - you end up destroying animals, trees, air, water and land - the very things that created and sustained all life on earth.
The earth is sick.
Ecosystems are dying.
Animals, trees, air, water and land are dying.
People say - why bother, it was meant to happen this way, nature will take care of itself.
When people fall sick - they rush to the doctor to save themselves.
When people fall sick - they rush to the hospital to save themselves.
Insane, abnormal, selfish, criminal human species.
Almost every country has been claiming its green cover is increasing.
How can this ever be true?
A fully grown tree is cut down in seconds/ minutes.
It takes 20 years for a tree to grow fully.
The rate of destruction of fully grown trees is hundreds of thousands
of times greater than the rate of replacement of fully grown trees.
And only a small percentage of trees that are planted survive to grow into healthy adult trees.
And even if you manage to replace trees how are you going to replace
the population of millions of species of animals, birds and insects
that lived in the forest and died when the forest was cut down.
Secondly where are you planting new trees? You can plant new trees on forest land only if forest land remains forest land.
But this is not the case.
We have got a very small planet whose circumference is just 40,000 km.
On this small planet two-thirds of surface area is water. Included in
the remaining land area are deserts, rocky mountains and glaciers which
do not support vegetation.
If the soil is fertile and gets rain it will grow forests, trees,
plants, vegetation by itself. This is how nature grew all the forests
in this world.
Before the arrival of man all the land that could grow forests had forests on it.
Then the genius human species arrived on the scene.
First he cut down forests for fire, then he cut down forests for
agriculture and villages. After Industrial Revolution forests were cut
down for towns and cities, for setting up industries/ factories, for
mining and extraction of raw material/minerals, for railways, for road
network.
So once the forest is cut down the land is taken up for agriculture,
for cattle grazing, for industry, for towns and cities, for rail and
road network.
So where are the new trees being planted? Where are they growing up?
How can green cover ever increase?
Lies, lies, lies …blatant lies.
The rate of destruction of forests has risen exponentially after Industrial Revolution.
One can know the truth by looking at the satellite pictures of forests - before and after. One can compare the pictures taken 30 years ago with those taken this year.
Why did God create the insane human species that is ready to do
everything for the wrong cause and nothing for the right cause – a
species which is willing to do everything to destroy the ecosystems and
nothing to save the ecosystems.
Man is ready to kill and get killed for religion, for country, for honour, for power, for money and fame - But not for environment.
Millions have been killed over trivial issues and causes.
Millions have died for trivial issues and causes.
How many people have died for environment? How many people have died for
the most important / precious things on earth – animals, trees, air,
water and land – the very things that created and sustained all life on
earth.
Most of the ecosystems are already gone. The
little that remains is dying moment by moment. The situation is
extremely critical but the human response is limited to the same old
insanity – bring this technology, bring that technology - bring this technology, bring that technology.
Environmentalism has failed.
Environmentalism never existed.
It was Pseudo-Environmentalism all the way.
When 3000 people died in World Trade Center collapse the west was outraged - Killers, Murderers, Terrorists - they cried out. America vowed to smoke out the culprits - attacked Afghanistan, flattened the country and killed hundreds of thousands of people [directly or indirectly].
When American company “Union Carbide”… killed 20,000 people in Bhopal, India the same desire for justice was not shown by the west.
Why? - Is this not killing, murder, terrorism?
There are hundreds of insecticides/ pesticides that are banned in western countries but the west is selling millions of tonnes of these chemicals in asia - leading to millions of deaths [directly or indirectly].
Is this not killing, murder, terrorism?
The west is shipping millions of tonnes of toxic , hazardous waste to asian countries for recycling - leading to millions of deaths [directly or indirectly].
Is this not killing, murder, terrorism?
The Military Industrial Complex has killed millions of people in wars. No terrorist organization has killed that many people.
Industry kills - Industry kills humans, Industry kills animals, Industry kills trees, Industry kills air, Industry kills water, Industry kills land.
Industry is the killer - Industry is the murderer - Industry is the
terrorist.
Destruction of ecosystems will soon lead to collapse of Industrial Society.
Humans have decimated millions of other species - very soon it will be the turn of Humans to get decimated.
But even decimation of humans will not save ecosystems - only a total wipe-out of humans will save ecosystems.
If a few million humans survive they will again try to build another Industrial Society because they have seen such a society.
Only human extinction will work.
When the human species appears again there must be no memory of Industrialization and consumerism left in the human brain.
It would be best if the human species never ever appears on the planet again.
This planet can only sustain societies that produce their own food.
This planet cannot sustain societies that do not produce their own food.
Everyone in this world is eating food.
But everyone in this world is not producing food.
Today 50% of world population is living in cities. This population is not producing food. A society that does not produce its own food creates unnecessary work to keep itself occupied. People would go crazy if this unnecessary work is not created. A city-based/ non-farming society is mostly engaged in production and selling of consumer goods and services. Work turns into over-work, extra work, destructive work.
When society produces its own food it destroys ecosystems for food, clothing, shelter.
When society does not produce its own food it destroys ecosystems for “consumer goods” in addition to food, clothing, shelter.
Cities existed before Industrial Revolution but their destructive impact was very little because they were not producing consumer goods that are being made today.
We can never save environment if we are destroying extra - We can never save environment if we destroy it for “consumer goods” in addition to food, clothing and shelter.
It is impossible to save environment as long as cities exist.
It is impossible to save environment if we have societies that do not produce their own food.
