"Save the earth", "Save the Ocean", "Save the forests", "The earth is bleeding" etc are very common phrases we come across in this century. What is funny is that humans aren't even looking at saving themselves (like "Save the humans" Cheesy

) except shelling the shit out of ourselves in the name of wars based on egos of our leaders.

From what I see, The earth doesn't give a damn on whether we try to save it or not. We found the Earth here, and we shall probably go extinct at one point and leave it behind, just like the dinosaurs are now a distant history to it. The earth will always heal no matter what.

All this "Save the earth" projects or themes won't make sense if a random asteroid came from nowhere and hit our planet, wiping out everyone. I think our priorities are misplaced. We should be looking at saving each other, avoid pointless wars and survive peacefully.

The planet does not need saving. We need to protect our environment and our limited resources.

We are only protected by a 1-3 mm ozone layer. When it will be gone, most of life will go with it.

We need to stop using fossil fuels, and we need to stop the exponential growth of the human population.

Don't shit where you eat.

Supposedly, the ozone layer is showing signs of healing after 2000, a result of reducing the usage of ozone depleting substances, such as Chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs), however, HCFCs are yet to be banned and are still used in refrigerators and freezers.

In 2019, the ozone hole was considerably smaller, but honestly, I don't see too much improvement in recent years.

I'm starting to believe that our generation is pretty much doomed.
