The Planet: Can we eat Money?

This is what an ancestor quoted for mankind’s future:

But what if we can recreate a world where 

  • Trees are replenished through conscious human effort 
  • Fish are left to thrive peacefully in their natural habitats through conscious human effort  
  • All water bodies are cleaned up through conscious human effort 

What if for the first time in the history of mankind, we take a proverb as an inspiration to cease exploitation of our planet and its resources? 

What if we instead reverse our actions as mankind to actually restore the damage we caused and leave a legacy of replenishment through our actions to restore balance on our planet? 

What if we actually follow through with our ancestors’ advice to: 

What if we actually think of our planet as our own baby, to take care of, rather than a temporary planet that we can live on?

Here, we’ve compiled some brilliant measures that are currently being executed in this direction. Check them out!

If you’re overfishing at the top of the food chain, and acidifying the ocean at the bottom, you’re creating a squeeze that could conceivably collapse the whole system.
