The Earth Is Full
Have we used up all our resources? Have we filled up all the livable space on Earth? After listening the presentation of Paul Gilding, I kept asking these two questions to myself. Besides lands, oceans, and air, the last main thing that exists on Earth is human being. In other words, Earth is filled with human beings right now. Paul Gilding also stated that the current growth based socioeconomic approach is unsustainable. Although the technology and economy are improving, which take us to live in a better quality of lives. However, we did not think of the consequences that we made. In addition, people in nowadays are having a wrong and impossible expectation that the economy will become bigger and stronger in a limited time. This is totally agreeable, because people should not care about present only. What matters the most is the condition in the future. Paul Gilding also reminded us that we should all be fear about things that closely surrounded us, such as families, friends and children, because we are living in uncertainties. Therefore, it is significant to think about the future rather than the present.
