According to Scientists, we are the first generation to be unequivocally and irrevocably informed that we are undermining the stability, the equilibrium, and the ability of planet Earth to support human development and sustenance as we know it.
As we enter a new stage (Science calls this the Anthropocene) the age of the Humans - we are now the ones driving non-linear change. We managed to patch the ozone layer but in 2020 nearly 3 billion animals were killed or displaced by Australian wildfires. It is one of the worst if not the worst wildfire in history. Over 5,000 Koalas perished. This beautiful animal, along with many others, are now threatened with extinction. But this is only one disastrous event, and in one country. Everyday we see the news, coral reefs blanching, oceans polluted, atmospheric aerosol pollution, glaciers melting, strange weather patterns, and climate becoming more difficult to predict.
Are we at risk of destabilizing our entire planet? Are we too late to reverse the damage that has been done to the earth’s ecosystem?
