Welcome to my Earth blog. I will be posting weekly on the effect our species has and had on our once beautiful planet. For years, humans have exploited the resources of our planet, completely neglecting the problems these actions caused: we have filled the air that surrounds us with harming particles and gases, we cut down 1 and a half acres of forest every second, we are constantly ripping out resources from our planet, that we very well know won't just reappear. Why you ask? Because we are too self-indulging to think about the future, too naive to believe that leaving that light on won't make much difference, too greedy to spend that little extra on an electric car and most importantly too ignorant of the consequences of our actions. The problem is, all those "qualities" are human.
