Default Re: OT: If you lead the world, what would you do?

PvK is right though. If we keep trashing our environment the way we have been, there will come a point, in the not so distant future, where the damage will become so great that it cannot be undone.

I believe that the planet is a living breating thing that is changing and aging around us. We don't like to see these changes as they spell bad things for our future. From the polar caps melting, to receeding glaciers the planet is warming up. However this is to be expected as the planet changes.

I think the damage that we have done is significant, but pales in comparisson to mother nature. He have contributed a fair share of trama to the planet, but in the great skeam of things, the damge we have done over the last 150 years is rather small compared to the thousands of years that mother nature has been at work.

Right now we face several life ending events, the poles might flip, the megnetic field might collaps, the sun might go nova, we could get hit by a comit, the moon could explode, etc.

These are all real possibilities and surely one day one of them will come to pass and we will all be no more.

In the mean time we must learn to work toward protecting what we have, or we will surely loose it.

That is why under my rule, environmentalists would be given the power over millions of slaves and be ordered to clean up the planet.
