Another cool idea would be to have more humans on a planet that is in close proximity to ours. What if we had an interplanetary exchange system with a speedy way to travel between the two? We could work together to harvest resources from two planets rather than just one. Or, we could use one planet for harvesting resources and the other for living. These imaginary scenarios would be interesting and beneficial for us; however, I do not see any possibility of them happening.

Earth v2.0
Earth is revolving in orbit at such an ideal distance from the sun, with ideal gravitational pull, and with all of the resources we need. Earth is fine the way it is! For those reasons, I would set up a parallel galaxy that has the same structure as ours. The real changes would need to occur within our planet - with ourselves. First, we need to address our energy expenditure. When we consider how quickly we are approaching the end of our finite natural energy sources, a new planet would need to contain more fuel. Once we've depleted our natural resources, we're screwed. Scientific research may not be able to keep up with the rate at which we drain oil wells and harvest natural gas. More fuel and efficient harvesting methods would set up humankind for sustainable success.

this is a very interesting topic that i thought about writing. What do you think would happen if the gravitational pull were to change on earth, what impact will it have on the creatures that call earth their home. It seems as humans self destruct, do you think that humans will use up all of their natural resources..that are needed for them to survive on earth. I believe that if humans recognize there is a problem now, then just maybe we could make a stand and stop this. Overall you added good detail and did very well in this blog post.
ReplyDeleteI agree with you that we are all screwed once we use up our nonrenewable resources. I also agree that earth is fine how it is and that it is highly unlikely for us to initiate a plan to have a planet exchange. What do you think would happen to the planet that was only used for resources? I think that it is inevitable to think that we won’t destroy something. You had some very strong points and backed them up. It was a great job and I enjoyed reading your post.
