UNITED STATES: 1a Virtual Profile

A) What is your vision for a sustainable world?

My vision of a sustainable world is natural. I see a world without haze or buses and trucks blowing smoke into the air. I see a world with windmills on hills and solar panels on buildings. People either walk, ride trains, or bike to places. There are no buses, cars, or trucks. There are less slaughtering of animals and more cultured or manufactured meat. The ozone layer is healthy and is limiting the amount of radiation hitting the Earth. The polar ice caps are whole and the sea levels are at a regular level. There is no droughts and all people are healthy. Gyms should make energy as people run on treadmills. The world will be self-sufficient with renewable or inexhaustible resources.

B) What are you planning to do to make this vision a reality?

I am planning to encourage people to stop slaughter farms. I wish people to eat more cultured meat which is better for the environment and people’s health. I will ride my bike to all places possible so less emissions are put into the atmosphere. My love of animals is sincere and I hate to see polar bears and penguins suffer from the actions of human being.

C) What impact has colonization had on our journey to a sustainable planet?

Colonization has brought many different obstacles to our journey to a sustainable planet. For example, colonization has brought new devices and inventions to new places around the planet. Colonization of North America brought guns and the modern weapons of war to the native people who were still using bows and arrows. The usage of guns has increased and to build these machines many unsustainable resources are used.

Hi,

     I loved how you widened your scope of view, by focusing on a number of things, from animals, to the atmosphere, and renewable energy resources

I admire your love for animals, I also love animals, and I do not like to see animals suffering from human actions, you had a great idea, surely the world would be better if everyone had that thought.

Hello,

I liked your answers, especially because they can come true like to ride a bike instead of driving cars. It made me think that change starts in us, in small actions. The car has its value and is a great invention, but the problem is in the excessive amount of vehicles and in our dependence on it.

Hi Keshav,

Awesome response! I really liked how you thought of not slaughtering precious animals as your vision for a sustainable world. What else did colonization do to our planet?

I like how you focus on helping animals (stopping slaughter farms, people eat cultured meat).  I also like how you point out a part of civilization that is damaging the world.

I like how you thought about newer ways to create energy, like the idea of using people's exercise to generate energy, which I think is a good idea.
