Celebrating the 100th Birthday of Famous "Gaia" Book Series Author - James Lovelock

Scientist James Lovelock had set up the "Gaia hypothesis" back in 1969.

Save the elephants to save the forests to save the world!

We Have Consumed Planet Earth Resources for This Year, but Population Will Rise to 11.2 Billion in 2100

Illustration: Pixabay Global Footprint Network has calculated that we have consumed planet Earth resources for this year. Our planet has limits to how much it can regenerate naturally, and we are exhausting it much more. https://phys.org/news/2019-07-earth-resources-spent-july.html https://www.theatlantic.com/family/archive/2019/07/world-population-stop-growing/595165/ There are going to be a lot more old people by the year 2100. I recommend setting up regulations like China had "One-child policy".
