20,000 scientists simultaneously warned about the fate of humanity
A gloomy future awaits us if humanity does nothing.
What is the future of humanity? Can be handy sublimation thanks to development technology. However, that scenario can only happen if the Earth is not destroyed. And according to the fact that nearly 20,000 scientists signed a warning letter about human destiny, the situation is getting worse than ever.
Specifically, the letter is titled: "World Science warns humanity: Second warning" (Originally: World Scientists' Warning to Humanity: A Second Notice). This was followed by the first letter in 1992 issued by the Concerned Scientific Commission (UCS), to warn of the fate of humanity.
The Earth situation is getting worse than ever.
It is known that UCS is a community of many scientists around the world, including names that have won Nobel prizes. The purpose of the letter is to stir up top politicians in the world. We need them to care about issues that threaten the fate of the Earth, such as climate change and the destruction of green forests.
According to experts, people need to take concrete and immediate actions to preserve the green planet for future generations.
"Since 1992, except for the restoration and stabilization of the ozone layer, humanity has failed in many other environmental-related challenges. And more worrisome, it seems that things are getting worse. "- remarkable excerpt from the letter.
"In addition, it is likely that we have started the Great Extinction process. This is the sixth time this has happened in the past 540 million years. Many living organisms are in danger of disappearing forever, even can become extinct at the end of this century ".
In fact, this letter was released in November 2017, with more than 15,000 signatures. But now, there are 4,500 more scientists involved, pushing the number to nearly 20,000. And maybe in the future, the number will be even higher, making it the most published letter in the scientific journal ever.
"Scientists warn people to call for collaboration between the global and public scientific community" - Professor William Ripple from Oregon State University, also the author of the letter.
A gloomy future awaits us?
Professor Ripple hopes that the letter and related reports can contribute to the solution for humanity. For example, he proposed a stronger tax on carbon fuels, local vegetation restoration, and some poaching solutions.
"In order to prevent the destruction of biodiversity, people need to act urgently. We have to come up with alternative solutions for the occupation that invades the environment like now."
"Soon, everything will deviate from orbit. Time is running out. We must soon recognize and put it into action, from everyday life to government decisions. Because of the Earth. is our home ".
The letter is published on the website of the American Institute of Biological Sciences.
