The New Age of Sustainable Development
It is quite fascinating to discover that the different ecosystems
such as the Oceans, the Amazon forest, the Arctic & Antarctic
icecaps as well as the Saharan desert are exquisite components of the
unique system that is Earth.
Each of these aforementioned (as well as all others) are important to the stability of the earth in terms of weather which determines feeding, accommodation and various other livelihood patterns of humans as well as other living things.
Undoubtedly, it is no longer debatable that Humans have exerted such tremendous pressure on the planet that has heralded a new epoch named the Anthropocene ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anthropocene ).
Anthropos (ἄνθρωπος) is Greek for man while -cene is denoting a recent geological period.
Thus we humans have become a force that is gradually changing the face of the earth in ways that call for concern due to two main reasons:
With the above in mind, it is mandatory that humans return to those values which uphold and glorify 'balance' and 'optimality' in terms of our interactions and behaviors in our day to day lives. Coincidentally, throughout recorded history such has been the message embedded in human socio-cultural sphere.
Regardless of the countless seemingly divergent beliefs we humans profess, we seem to converge on certain values that will ensure life is sustainable.
But for me I will end by saying: the earth is a wonderful enigma that keeps churning out proofs that there is indeed One who is The Grand Architect.

Thus we humans have become a force that is gradually changing the face of the earth in ways that call for concern due to two main reasons:
The first and primary reason is that the changes the earth is experiencing as a result of human activity have been proven to be setting the world on a path of irreversible self-destruct.
Secondly, all with life seek to reproduce and ideally bequeath a platform upon which the next generation can survive, prosper and continue the reproductive cycle.
With the above in mind, it is mandatory that humans return to those values which uphold and glorify 'balance' and 'optimality' in terms of our interactions and behaviors in our day to day lives. Coincidentally, throughout recorded history such has been the message embedded in human socio-cultural sphere.
