467 Why do we try and say that every type of environment on the planet is necessary for the planet to exist? This is neither true nor unimportant.

    Scientific understanding of how a certain ecosystem works are not the same as being necessary for the planet's survival. I have never understood why so many people feel that deserts and semi-arid areas of the planet are somehow important to the planet unless it is because carbon dioxide levels in the atmosphere were so low that using greenhouse gasses for keeping temperatures high enough to prevent the next ice age was not enough without taking the carbon stored from these areas causing semi-arid and arid areas to exist in the first place! Or perhaps to decrease areas of cloud cover so that more of the sun's rays could now strike unprotected soils, both increasing heating of these areas and changing the sun's rays into the infrared zone which is the type of rays that causes greenhouse gasses to warm?

    Just about every religion on the planet believes that mankind is a designed species on Earth. Either designed in the likeness of their creator, or to have the right to free will and therefore may be judged, or to be able to create art and music, which is perhaps the start of all knowledge!

    I too believe that most species on the planet are in some way designed to fulfill a need. (I am not so sure that every species is important for the continuation of life on the planet, in many cases they only restrict life) What do we call this "being designed"? Is it a life force as depicted in "Star Wars" with both a Lightside and a Darkside? Or are the religious correct in a supreme being or beings that put everything here both for our benefit and so that we can all be judged by our actions? Or do restrictions that sequestration imposes on both life and the planet carry with it its own needed response? The only other option that I see is pure chance, that humanity came along at just the right time, that a thinking and acting species was needed! Each of the preceding choices carries within them difficulties. Why, who, when, where, and how, is not important, only what we do in the immediate future to safeguard Earth and all of its inhabitants must be our ongoing concern!  (No we do not need to save mosquitoes, ticks, and other such types)

Global Warming and Climate Change} Lost of available carbon vs. too much C02 in atmosphere!

Global Warming and "The life cycle of a planet" By Daniel Kadavy  402-890-7946  Cortland Nebraska                                                                                                                                                                                                                The planet is running out of carbon, which is the mainstay of all life on the planet! Something has to be done to mitigate this. And yet Global Warming is changing ...

503 DIII Humanity is the only species that have to pay to live and survive. while there are a few exceptions to this rule, they are few and far between!

What does that say about how we live? It means that we have very little say in most aspects of our lives if we wish to live in a house, we must pay for that privilege with taxes, energy, insurance, maintenance, and keeping the standards that each place puts upon the owners, cutting grass, moving snow, and so many other requirements to fall within acceptable parameters of society! We must obey laws we may disagree with, nor have any input in their adoption or application! While there are many different arrangements of governments around the world, even the ones that are voted in or out of power by the masses are never truly fair in explaining to their constituents what they are going to attempt to do if elected! Yet this is the world we live in while we attempt to understand what 3.5 billion years of carbon sequestration have forced our planet to go through, including almost every single extinction event that has occurred in the history of our planet!  So the problem that we face is...

CCLXXIV Global Warming and Climate Change} Let's talk more, about the 50,000 gigatonnes of available carbon, that is left for all life on the planet!

First, how do scientist's come up with around 50,000 gigatonnes of available carbon left on the planet? Some of the amounts can be directly measured, how much there is in the atmosphere is one of the most researched numbers on the planet! That figure of 415 parts per million equals around 800 gigatonnes of carbon, in the form of carbon dioxide. 560 gigatonnes in plant and animal life are based on both satellite images for how much plant life is on the planet during the year and measurements that were taken by hundreds of people every year all around the planet. How much soil carbon, is taken by averaging soil carbon from all over the globe this amount is said to be 1,500 gigatonnes. The amount of "fossil Fuels" is the amount of "known" reserves found by mainly oil accompanying who has been looking as far and fast as they can, that amount is estimated at 4,000 gigatonnes (The carbon sequestrated in fossil fuels would only become available if mankind continues to ...
