London –
Climate change and global warming is increasingly worrying about its impact on the planet Earth, but on the other hand, efforts to overcome them are considered not optimal so far. So it is feared, the fate of mankind in the future is bad, likened to be redeemed.
“I fear that our current situation resembles the adage of boiling a frog, comfortably in the heat of a pot until it is too late,” wrote Martin Rees, a prominent astrophysicist and former chairman of the Royal Society.
The boiled to death frog more or less said if the frog is in slowly boiling water, it is not alert and stays where it is until it is too late and dies.
“Politicians focus on threats that seem like COVID-19, but they don’t want to prioritize the global anticipation needed to control climate change because the worst impacts are far beyond their timeframe,” he wrote in a column.
According to him, humans cannot leave Earth in a bad state for their posterity later. At this time, the condition of this planet is already in a state of quite alarming.
“Changes in weather patterns around the world have consequences. It makes mass migration, land use change, forest disturbance and others. If it is too severe, it will damage the biosphere irreparably,” he explained again.
He also stressed the importance of anticipating, for example, seriously reducing harmful carbon emissions. Developed countries must aggressively utilize renewable energy, for example using the sun, water and wind. Also nuclear power as long as it is made with qualified security.
We have to think about the inheritance that we owe to our ancestors. It would be a shame if we left Earth vulnerable in our descendants,” he said.
