[GMW #4119] Being A 'Developed' Planet Or Nation Should Not Mean Destroying Parts Of Planet Earth

[GMW #4119] Being A 'Developed' Planet Or Nation Should Not Mean Destroying Parts Of Planet Earth   Idea Dream - Robert Muller's Ideas 3001 to 4000
~ Idea 4509 ~
In the year 2050 we are expected to be 9 billion humans, 3 billion more than today; there will be tens of thousands of new products; innumerable new cars and airplanes; many more books, magazines and newspapers; innumerable computers and television sets; infinitely more telephone calls and electronic mail; world tourism; insurances for anything you can think of; but you will have to buy fresh water and carry oxygen bottles on our shoulders to breathe fresh air; the media will make sure to have exciting, especially bad news every day; advertisement will help you to buy more and more anything forever; the supermarkets will be sky-high hyper markets offering you, in addition to any products on Earth, sleeping facilities, movies and entertainment. Most surfaces of our planet, mountains, forests, rivers, seas and oceans will be occupied. There will be even cities on the seas and oceans and in the atmosphere.

Yes, dear humans you will have the greatest time on a 'developed', no longer primitive, but half destroyed planet Earth.

UN Secretary General Dag Hammarskjöld and U Thant had different views regarding the allegiance of world servants:  for Dag Hammarskjöld world allegiance was the rule, superseding national allegiance.  U Thant for his part was allegiant to himself, to his family, to his culture, to his nation, but also to humanity and the Earth.  His belief in multiple allegiances is closer to the true reality of life, namely diversity in unity.

I love to watch the fine mist of the night come on,
The windows and the stars illumined, one by one,
The rivers of dark smoke pour upward lazily,
And the moon rise and turn them silver. I shall see
The springs, the summers, and the autumns slowly pass;
And when old Winter puts his blank face to the glass,
I shall close all my shutters, pull the curtains tight,
And build me stately palaces by candlelight.

~ William O. Douglas
