It has evolved into a toxic environment affecting the health of all life on earth including our oceans. Besides the natural cooling and heating of the planet, the toxins from our industrialization, products we use and numbers of humans, the atmosphere has changed so much that we are seeing abnormal weather patterns and natural disasters in every country on earth. We could compare filling the earth to filling an empty bag–if filled too much, it breaks. Nothing can stop the breakage unless we either stop filling the bag beyond capacity or remove items to lighten the stress on the bag.
