As the World’s population keeps growing we have to
expand living environments for everyone to inhabit. These new environments take up space though. You cannot just poof them out of midair, they
take up resources to build, resources that we are running out of. There is a great need for the Island
Civilization.
If we want to continue to live in a thriving world
with the modern technologies we need to live in the Island Civilization. With the Island Civilizations we would be able
to prevent the problems of resource depletion. As the population is expanding we have the
need for more houses, houses take lots of wood. A large portion of the wood used to build
these houses comes from the forest. When
the first Europeans came to America the land was thriving with forest; there
were no large skyscrapers, no large college campuses. If we were to build and
live in the Island Civilizations we would have these large forested areas.
With the Island Civilizations we would only have a
negative impact on the areas that we lived in not the entire world. The trees
would grow tall and only few would ever be cut down. We need to save our
resources. We need to build the Island Civilizations.
Imagine you are walking down a forested path, there
are tall trees on all sides of you, there are birds chirping. You hear small
animals scurrying around in the leaves, and then you see a large buck run in
front of you. All of a sudden you open your eyes and see you were about to
cross a busy city street, there are no forest there are no tall trees. The only
thing in the sky is airplanes. There was no buck that was running in front of
you, it was just a speeding car. This will be the reality if we do no build Island
Civilizations and help the environment and reduce the amount of resource depletion,
so we can go into the forest and see the buck.
I really liked the scenario you discussed of being in the forest, but then being in a city with cars everywhere instead of animals. That is so true! I agree with you we definitely need an Island CIvilization I just don't know how it could happen. Resource depletion is a huge issue because one day we will just run out! We aren't doing a good job of conserving at all because we are so selfish as human beings. I enjoyed reading your post!
