We can't save the planet. Why not? Because we can't even save ourselves.
The planet has millions of cubic miles. But we are so tiny that you could easily fit all the volume of all people into 2 cubic miles. We are nothing.
However, we exist. That means that the One Who made the planet, also made us. We need to look to Him to find salvation for ourselves. He will take care of the planet.
Yes we exist and our existence can make a difference .
Some natural catastrophe has damaged the Earth badly like Covid, floods, Earth quacks, typhoon and any other but we humans are also damaging our Earth by deforestation, by polluting our environment , by killing and hunting, by overpopulation. These things have caused damage to Ozone layer , causes soil erosion.
So yes we save our planet and play our part .
But the point is, WHY TRY? I mean, it's a good thought, and a good idea. But our attempts don't do anything except, maybe, locally a little... like where there is a smog filled city, but the open lands don't have any smog. The only thing we really get is a little false peace of mind.
On top of that, since we are going to die anyway, in a few years (or maybe today), what is the real benefit? The wars we have show us we don't really love other people. We need to work on love before we can even think about trying to control a whole, massive planet. And the wars themselves destroy the planet way more than most other things.
But, WHY save the planet, especially since we are only here for a moment? Why, what for? We will be gone, and it won't do us a bit of good.
And then there is the corruption and the practicality involved.
Is recycling one big waste of time? Only 5% of the 51 million tons of American household plastic garbage got recycled last year - the rest ended up in landfill, bombshell report claimsAccording to Greenpeace's survey, only two types of plastic are widely accepted at the nation's 375 material recovery facilities.
Plastics need to need to meet the definition of recyclable that is used by the Federal Trade Commission (FDA) or the Ellen MacArthur Foundation's (EMF) new plastic economy initiative, the report found.
The most common plastics, bottles and jugs, fall well below the 30 percent recycling rate needed to meet the definition by the two organizations, while none of the others, like plastic lids and cups, are accepted by either organization.
This means that major corporations, such as Coca-Cola, PepsiCo and Unilever, that tout their plastics as 100 percent recyclable are only adding to the problem.
