Picture : Its a Planet Not an Empire
(via nocarbon)
“According to the Living Planet Report, human demands on natural resources have doubled in under 50 years and are now outstripping what the Earth can provide by more than half; and humanity carries on as it is in use of resources, globally it will need the capacity of two Earths by 2030.”
Shaping Earth:
Starting with simple ways of shaping earth for human needs of survival, we have transformed ourself into a species on which the fate of many life forms (including ourselves) depends upon.
Where we go from here, how far we go and whether we will be lonely travellers as we continue our journey, largely depends on how we shape ourselves now.
