Today we reach a milestone in human history. All the elements to save ourselves from climate catastrophe are now in place. It is up to us now to use them and provide a future for our generations to come.
Since 2003, when I first started to get involved in the climate issue, I have learnt much, met many and prayed a lot for inspiration to solve this existential problem for humanity.
Having seen very little progress on the subject since 2003, (indeed we are hurtling towards disaster even faster now), I resolved to solve the conundrum of why we appear to be blind to the danger and unable to act. Blind to the danger is an apt turn of phrase because CO2, in whatever concentration in the atmosphere, is imperceptible to us and of all our senses, not seeing it is the most important. The other major reason of little progress is the huge wealth, power and influence the fossil fuel industry has over our human leadership.
Our only hope is to ‘discover’ the natural, free means to remove excess CO2 from the atmosphere in the colossal quantities now required, (over 36 billion tons of carbon annually) and for humanity to unite as a species, understanding how and why we got to this critical point, and realising how we are going to save ourselves.
To survive we need three elements to be set up and initiated. All three elements are within this website, www.i4one.org
Education, Unification, Action or put more simply:
LEARN
UNITE
ACT
On this website you can LEARN why and how we have a problem and our path to this present point of near no return; our ‘Event Horizon’ as a species. In Astro physics, the event horizon is the point whereby, once crossed, it is impossible to escape the gravitational pull from the collapsed star in the centre of a ‘Black Hole’ in space.
You can find out how as a species we can UNITE sufficiently to tackle the problem with the same numbers we have employed to create the problem in the first place.
Thirdly, you can see how we ACT using the only doable, simple means to resolve our atmospheric CO2 problem as now exists, explained on these pages. Duckweed, a tiny plant, seemingly irrelevant and so easily overlooked, that by its tentative restrictive means of survival ensures it can do the job safely, efficiently and perfectly for us, in the short time we have left before we destroy the life supporting mechanisms of our planet.
We only have one chance to escape this planet and spread beyond as a life form. The Earth will inevitably be consumed by the sun as it expands into a red dwarf form as it dies. There is simply not enough time for another lifeform to evolve on this planet, that is capable of leaving and colonising outer space Eons into the future. We are the only chance to do so. This is either the beginning of a
magnificent wondrous journey to a universal story or the end, the finality of self-extermination and extinction.
