The Dead Blue & You
by William (Bill) C. McElroy (Author)- Kindle Edition / Paperback Edition
The Dead Blue is about our environment, both our Blue Sky and our Blue Oceans
that are dying due to the presence of humans on the planet. Humans have needs of
housing, food, trade, energy, and transportation and we have in the short time
we have been on this little floating Blue Rock sought and found each.
Unfortunately, in our quest for a better life and living conditions we have
exploited the planet on which we live, and in many instances destroyed portions
of it.
We are now up to over 6.3 Billion strong, and there are probably 10 times that
population in wild and domestic animals, and each being produces methane a gas
that contributes to the Greenhouse Effect that is causing Global Warming.
We also are by choice or accident polluting our water and air with chemicals,
plastics, and all sorts of human waste, i.e. junk as we consume just about
everything we touch. Think of it this way, the recent hurricanes put furniture,
food, paints, household chemicals, appliances, vehicles, building materials,
toys, electronics, and millions of tons of other consumables into our oceans,
lakes, and rivers. Water is corrosive and each of these items will eventually
dissolve and settle to the bottom of our waterways and thus, choke off plant
life and oxygen to marine life, the very marine life we depend upon for our
survival.
We have and are changing the earth, and not always in a positive way, and we
need to wake up to the facts, and make positive changes to the way we live,
manufacture things and food, and transport ourselves from place to place.
This short booklet hopefully may provide some ideas on how to do this, and
someone with more resources than I may become wealthy solving our environmental
problems as we attempt to save mankind from his or her own destruction.
