NEW YORK ~ NEW YORK ~ HOME TO OVER 20 MILLION PEOPLE & RISING

 

C IVILIZATIONS  are fragile ~ they come and they go !

I  KNOW  that Urban Activity exploits Mineral Resources

V ARIOUS  Civilizations (30+) have come and gone since 10,000 BC

I  KNOW  that Urban Activity exploits Food Resources

L IFE on EARTH is becoming increasingly URBAN !

I N 1900 only 15% of People lived in Cities ~ in 2000 50%

Z ANY  City Dwellers use more Resources and produce more Pollution

A LL  Urbanisation requires land ~ causes deforestation etc

T HE  Earth\'s Rsources cannot sustain more urbanisation

I  FEEL ~ in the UK & USA we should support and develop Rural Communities

O NE GLOBAL solution is to develop self~sustaining Village Communities

N O ONE needs to starve or be without Clean Water

 

O NLY  drastic change can prevent Global Warming and reduce POLLUTION

If you have Great~Grandchildren ~ they will be alive in 2100 when the

Population will be 15 Billion liviung on a DYING PLANET unless we act NOW !
