............................. People of industrial society keep asking what is the solution to save environment..........It is like the cigarette industry asking what is the solution to save lungs.........It is like the mining industry asking what is the solution to save forests.........It is like the construction industry asking what is the solution to save soil...........You have to shut down cigarette industry, mining industry, construction industry..
People say they want to save environment but don't want to stop industry.......When your house catches fire do you say you want to save the house but don't want to extinguish the fire???
The solution has been known for millions of years..............Solution of the past is the only solution of future.
Food searching societies / food producing societies were the solution............Non-industrial societies were the solution.
Millions of other species did not destroy environment in millions of years.......That was the solution.......Forest man did not destroy environment in hundreds of thousands of years......That was the solution........Agrarian man destroyed very little environment in 10,000 years.......That was the solution.
Industrial man has destroyed the whole planet in 100 years.......You have to stop industry.
You cannot save a person after killing him........You can only save him by not killing him.
You cannot save environment after killing it with industry.......You can only save environment by not killing it with industry.
Millions of other species have already been decimated by industrial activity.......More than 99% of collapse has already happened......Man is next on the list.......Human collapse will come with lightning speed now. . . .
Trying to save environment without stopping industrial activity is like trying to save your burning house without putting out the fire.
Keep a balance between industry and environment ???
When your house catches fire can you save it by keeping a balance between house and fire???
You cannot keep a balance between two things when one of them destroys the other. . .
The term "sustainable development" is an oxymoron.........It is like the term "peaceful war". . .
Bring this Technology.....Bring that Technology. Bring this Technology.....Bring that Technology.
Industrial Society trying to save environment, not by stopping Industrial Activity but by changing Industrial Technology is like the Police trying to save the victims of Mass Shooting not by stopping the shooting but by changing the Gun of the Shooter.
Technology has destroyed this planet in hundred years.......It was the absence of industrial technology that saved environment for millions of years before industrialization.
Trying to save environment with technology is like trying to stop fire with petrol. . .
It is ridiculous to talk about saving environment while destroying exponential extra environment for thousands of consumer goods and services.
How can one species get food, clothing, shelter PLUS thousands of consumer goods and services on a small planet which is just 40,000 km in circumference when millions of other species got only food from earth for millions of years???
Height of Insanity........Insanity raised to the power of Infinity. . .
There were two major switch-overs in human society.........from food searching to food producing society and from food producing to consumer goods producing society.
when the first switchover happened, humans were not aware of the small size of this planet and the finite resources it contained..........so the first switchover was totally excusable.
the second switch over was not excusable.........what happened in the last hundred years was totally criminal.........humans were fully aware of the small size of planet and the finite resources it contained.........industrial humans knew the dimensions of the planet.........they saw the small planet from outer space and yet they kept on producing thousands of consumer goods and services without asking one simple question.
How can one species get food, clothing, shelter PLUS thousands of consumer goods and services on a small planet which is just 40,000 km in circumference when millions of other species got only food from earth for millions of years???
Height of Insanity........Insanity raised to the power of Infinity. . . .
Desk jobs have destroyed this planet in hundred years.........Physical work kept this planet safe for millions of years........Physical work = Constancy and safety of planet.........Mental work = Continuous change and destruction of planet. . Do you know why new professions kept emerging every year in the last hundred years........Why new products kept emerging every year in the last hundred years???
For millions of years there was constancy in this world.........Millions of other species lived the same way for millions of years........Man lived the same way in forests for hundreds of thousands of years.........Man lived almost the same way in agrarian society for 10,000 years.
What led to the madness of "continuous change" from the sanity of "permanent constancy" in the last hundred years??? . .
The switch-over from physical work to mental work / desk jobs has destroyed this planet in hundred years.
You can do the same physical work day after day, year after year, decade after decade, century after century.......But you cannot do the same mental work again and again........Once you have solved a problem of mathematics you cannot keep solving it again and again........You need a new problem, a different problem.
Try reading yesterday's newspaper again. .
The madness of wanting something new all the time......The madness of chasing something new all the time came with the switch-over from physical work to mental work.
Pre-industrial society that did physical work had constancy........Industrial society which does mental work has continuous change, restless minds and devastated environment.
You can never escape from chaos, madness and destruction once you switch-over from physical work to mental work / desk jobs. . . . Physical Work, Subjective Experience, Religion and Spirituality did not destroy the planet in millions of years..........Scientific / Technological Thinking has destroyed the planet in just hundred years.
We can use our time and energy for three kinds of activities........Physical Work, Subjective Work (Experience) and Mental Work.
For millions of years environment did not get destroyed because activity was limited to physical work or subjective experience.........Millions of animal species did physical work........Man did physical work in hunter_gatherer stage and agrarian stage.......A very small percentage of population that did not do physical work spent its time and energy on subjective experience - religion, spirituality, yoga, meditation, pranayama and the arts.
Largescale destruction of environment began when man started using his time and energy for mental work - Science, Technology, Engineering, Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics, Business, Finance, Economics.........This led to invention of industrial machines running on Steam, Electricity and Oil........This led to industrialization and production (and selling) of thousands of consumer goods and services.
As long as we limited our activity to physical work or subjective experience we destroyed very little environment.
When we switched over to Scientific / Technological Thinking, we started producing thousands of consumer goods in millions of industries and corporations and ended up destroying the planet in just about 100 years. . . .
Physical work of industrial society is also highly destructive because it is just an extension of mental work of industrial society............Physical work for mining of hundreds of metals and minerals is happening because scientists and engineers doing desk jobs designed thousands of consumer goods whose production requires all the mining.
Physical work in construction promotes construction industry.........Physical work in manufacturing promotes manufacturing industry.
Both mental work and physical work of industrial society promoted industrial activity that has destroyed this planet.
Pre-industrial physical work was very different.........It was primarily for producing food. . . .
The madness of billions of pages of debate is also a consequence of the switch-over from physical work to mental work.........There was almost zero debate in pre-industrial society that did physical work when the medium for debate did not exist.
Billions of pages of debate is another toxic waste of industrial society just like billions of tonnes of plastic waste, chemical waste, gaseous waste and e-waste..........It was created by print industry, news industry, radio, television, computers, smart phones, internet, social media.
. . .
How can one species get food, clothing, shelter PLUS thousands of consumer goods and services on a small planet which is just 40,000 km in circumference when millions of other species got only food from earth for millions of years???
Height of Insanity........Insanity raised to the power of Infinity. . .
Living in industrial society was not even an option.......Agrarian society was the limit for man on earth.
Humans lived in food searching society for hundreds of thousands of years.......In food producing society for about 10,000 years.......Consumer goods producing industrial society is the anomaly /aberration........Industrial society running on electricity and oil has existed for just about hundred years.
Duration of industrial society is so small that it is almost zero percent of total human existence on earth. . . Only food searching / food producing societies were sustainable on earth........Only physical work was sustainable..........Consumer goods producing society has destroyed the planet..........Mental work / Desk jobs have destroyed the planet. . . . For hundred years the urban population of industrial society has been fooling the non-urban population with numbers, figures and terminologies.......Progress, Development, Growth Rate, Economy Rate, GDP. .
If Urban Society stops its supplies to Rural Society it will live forever. . If Rural Society stops its supplies to Urban Society it will die within a month. . That is the worth of Urban Jobs, Consumer Goods, Growth Rate, Economy Rate and GDP. . .
Urban jobs and professions have destroyed the planet.
The entire urban population of industrial society is criminal.
The crime goes unchecked because 50% of world population is now urban.
The crime goes unchecked because urban population is running the system. . . .
You can never escape from chaos, madness and destruction once you have created extra jobs and professions.........Industrial society has done just that........Industrial society has created hundreds of extra and destructive professions for its urban population which is not producing food which was the main occupation for thousands of years before industrialization. . . For millions of years there was just one main activity / occupation on earth - "Searching for Food" / "Producing Food"..........Urban population of industrial society is the anomaly that is producing consumer goods and services. . For millions of years, both adults and the offspring of millions of animal species "searched for food".
For hundreds of thousands of years, humans lived in forests where both adults and children "searched for food".
For thousands of years in agrarian society, most of the adults and children "produced food"
In industrial society (running on electricity and oil) which has only existed for 100 years, urban adults are producing consumer goods and services in industries and corporations..........Their children go to schools and universities where they learn how to produce and sell consumer goods in future. . . . What would happen to your home if 1000 people entered and started working non-stop, picking up all the things lying in your home, breaking them up to produce new things out of them?
Your home will get ruined in one day.
This is exactly what has happened to the planet in the last 100 years.......Billions of urban people worked non-stop in millions of industries and corporations producing thousands of consumer goods which has led to the destruction of forests, rivers, oceans and atmosphere........It has led to the decimation of millions of land and marine species. . . . Every job, every profession of industrial society is destructive.........Every institution, every organization of industrial society is destructive........Every activity of industrial society is destructive.......why???........Because you need electricity, oil, buildings, transportation, consumer goods and services for every job, profession, institution, organization and activity of industrial society.
Production and use of these things has destroyed forests, rivers, oceans and atmosphere.......Production and use of these things has decimated millions of land and marine species.......Production and use of these things has generated billions of tonnes of plastic waste, chemical waste, gaseous waste, e-waste and hundreds of thousands of tonnes of the most hazardous nuclear waste. . .
Billions of urban people working in millions of industries and corporations, government offices and NGOs will never try to bring down the system because they are getting salaries and packages from the very system that is killing the planet.......They are getting profits and funds from the very system that is killing all life and life sustaining things on earth. . . . .
Eradicate, abolish, dismantle industrial society right now........Industrial society is going to collapse like a house of cards within the next few years.........Dismantle it voluntarily........Unplanned collapse will lead to Total Chaos, Mass Murder and Total Contamination of this planet.
There are three options.
We continue with present lifestyle. We use force/ sabotage to stop industrial society. We dismantle industrial society voluntarily. . .
If we continue with present lifestyle there will be severe shortage of food and water in the coming years..........agriculture which requires regularity of weather will be destroyed by global warming / climate change........rivers will cease to exist because of melting, shrinking and vanishing glaciers........humans will be wiped out in the next few years and the planet will be totally destroyed. .
If we use force/ sabotage to stop industrial society humans will still get wiped out in the next few years and the planet will be contaminated / poisoned for thousands of years.......If force/ sabotage is used, cities will collapse first when supply of food and water will be disrupted......Billions of city people will rush out in search of food, water and land......They will first wipe out the villagers and small communities because they will have the advantage of numbers......Then they will fight each other for control of food, water and land......There will be no survivors......Only very few living in very remote areas of the world will survive. .
If force/ sabotage is used to stop industrial society this planet will be so contaminated that living would be worse than death.......There are 600 nuclear plants in this world where nuclear material has to be monitored continuously to avoid chain reaction and melting.......If force / sabotage is used these nuclear plants will start exploding like chernobyl and fukushima poisoning the entire planet with radioactive dust. . .
The only solution that can work is voluntary dismantling of industrial society.
A pure non-industrial society is not possible now because industrialization has increased human population to over 7 billion from 1 billion in 1800 AD.
Give free food to the urban population but immediately stop urban work for production of thousands of consumer goods........A fraction of world population is already producing food for entire population.
This planet is very small........Just 40,000 km in circumference.
Millions of other species destroyed environment only for food.
Forest man destroyed environment only for food.
Agrarian man destroyed environment for food, clothing and shelter.
Industrial man has destroyed environment for food, clothing, shelter PLUS thousands of consumer goods and services.
Industrial man has destroyed Exponential Extra Environment.
EXPONENTIAL EXTRA ENVIRONMENT.
It is the urban population of industrial society that has destroyed exponential extra environment.
The collective work of human society must be limited to food, clothing and shelter.........Millions of other species only got food from earth.
Give free food to the urban population but immediately stop urban work for production of thousands of consumer goods........A fraction of world population is already producing food for entire population. ....
