Our carelessness (this huge footprint we have been talking about) leaded to serious global consequences.
Firstly, we found coal, then, petroleum. Man only thought about developing: extracting raw materials and energy resources, and dropping in nature any kind of waste.
However, we realized that nature isn’t an unlimited source of resources and that it can’t absorb waste unlimitedly. So, although they had satisfied energy needs and, consequently, allowed a better life quality on developed countries, fossil fuels, among other pollutants, were seriously damaging our planet.
After this discovered, scientists started spreading the concepts of climate changes and global warming.
But if is it all false? Many people, who say that climate changes always occurred naturally on Earth, believe human action hasn’t anything to do with global warming. Consequently, a global warming controversy took place.
And if I told you there is an argument which makes this controversy insignificant? Take a look at the movie below.
Obviously, I choose column A. You must choose it too, even if you don’t believe our carelessness is responsible for global warming.
Fortunately, today is almost consensual that something has to be done. Is it too late?
It is certain that is hard to fight the dependence on petroleum, mainly because of economic interests. However, we believe is possible. And it’s true that much work is being done in that way.
You just have to contribute and spread the word.
Do something to undo what we have been doing. Further on this blog, we will explain you how to do it.
Choose column A.

I loved your definition of developing!
"developing: extracting raw materials and energy resources, and dropping in nature any kind of waste."
I chose column A, so at least we are 3! Imagine if those 3 were USA, Russia an China presidents. Imagine...
hi!! I think that your post was serious, profound and eye opener.
Any one "obviously" will choose column A because on that column are the best chances for our Planet.
One for all (Planet- humans) and all for one (humans-Planet).
