409 Mankind already, unwittingly kept the planet from entering into the next, ice age that should of started between 3,000-5000 years ago!

    Does that give mankind "carte blanche" to do anything we want on the planet, since we have already extended all carbon-based life by at least a few thousand years? The question is really irrelevant, in saving all carbon-based life for several thousand years we really saved ourselves, and without other carbon-based life, we would also become extinct.   

    Saving the planet is not a one-time action, as if we had successfully diverted another giant asteroid as large as the one that wiped out the dinosaurs and most of life at that time! But neither is it just trying to maintain the "status quo" of having just the right amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere! 

    The weather, and the climate, of this planet, as it is now, have too many factors with which mankind can help to change to reduce extreme weather events around the planet. Without re-starting much of the lost temperature-regulating ability of the planet! This includes increasing soil cover by plant life, and cloud cover by the resulting respiration of that plant life has always been a major factor in balancing how much of the sun's energy the planet receives as heat-producing energy or its use as energy for plant growth which does not produce heat. Plus the clouds themselves cause's much of the sun's energy to radiate back into space so that it does not heat up the planet. 

    It's kind of funny, that I saw where one way, scientists are thinking of solving the water problem out west is to build a pipeline from the pacific oceans to hover dam and bring that water, after being desalinated, to Lake Mead, so that it can run all the way back downstream to water California! Why not just water California directly and the increasing ground cover will increase rainfall far inland? Plus if instead of needing to desalinate billions of tons of Pacific ocean water, use nature to produce more rainfall by spraying that ocean water high into the air far from shore so that a much larger amount of now desalinated water vapor will cause that moisture to move inland with the prevailing winds, killing two birds with one, much less costly stone! 

    The "plan" is mankind's only feasible way forward to start the slow process of re-establishing the lost part of the planet's temperature-regulating ability, caused by over 25% of the land surface of the planet as either being arid or semi-arid and therefore increasing how much of the sun's energy reaches the planet's surface as heat-producing energy, instead of being converted to either plant life or radiated back into space from the newly increased cloud-cover. 

    Well, perhaps I have just wasted another few hours writing about a subject that no one is interested in because the planet could not possibly need mankind, for almost all carbon-based life to continue? But just by chance, if anyone does want to see another way of seeing life on this planet, I can be reached by calling 402-890-7946, or @ <daniel.kadavy212@gmail.com> or reading one of my 400 posts by going to <https://lifecycleofaplanet.blogspot.com>, 2 years, 409 posts, 10,500 downloads, and not one phone call or comment and no followers. Many people would see this as a no-win situation, "what about me" I guess that I think that attempting to save all life on this planet is worth a little extra work. Dan
