To the governments,
In the past and right now, we have been trying to heal the Earth in many ways as
our bad habits like littering, hunting wild animals, have damaged the Earth so
badly. Since the Earth is now so damaged by us humans, for my perspective, we
should stop healing the Earth, leave it unaltered and think of a way to live on
another planet.
First of all, it is a fact that we have made the Earth so polluted that it is
impossible for us to overcome all the consequences that have been caused. The
amount of money and effort we have to spend to recover the environment around
us is extremely huge and there is no chance for us to do so. According to News
reports on television, we need to spend twice the total assets of all people in the
world, which is just a dream figure, no one can ever achieve. Besides, there are
many other things that need to be fixed, not only the environment. For instance,
many countries, many areas, some have an underdeveloped economy, some need
to recover the economy after a sharp decline of their economy or in some country,
society or other things need recovery, too. Even though it is said that if we have the
will, we can do anything, there are always loads of impossible things that cannot
be done. As a result, if we are not and will not be able to to pay for those
environmental damage, why should we try to do so?
Moreover, despite being reminded to protect the environment everyday
everywhere, many people still behave unacceptably. While the others are trying to
plant more trees, clean places like beaches or the streets, many still litter trash
everywhere they can, still cut down trees, still hunt rare animals, ... With that
situation, the others’ good deeds are in vain and the environment is still gonna be
polluted like before. In addition, people always speak one way and act another. A
lot of people said that they would do anything they could to protect the
environment but they still behave as they have not said anything at all.
What’s more, isn’t living a new life on a new planet cool? In spite of the fact that
it takes us a long time to get used to living in a new place, new environment, we
can have a chance to get evolved. In other words, who knows if we can get evolved
and have new abilities? When we face danger, with something strange or with a
new environment, we will evolve to overcome it or to adapt to it just like we
evolved from apes. Isn’t it good for us?
I am and I’m surely certain that I am not the only one who is completely
hopeless about restoring the earth. Just leave it unaltered and try finding ways to
get to another planet to live or you will spend money and effort for nothing.
Stephen Hawking has once said: “I’m convinced that humans need to leave Earth”.
